Bouquet of Voloshek - hit of summer

Recently, everything is fashionable in the world as natural, natural, natural as possible. Strange as it may seem, this is also relevant for the world of floristry. Packaging materials made of film and plastic have long since given way to completely natural paper and cardboard. Drops of glue, sparkles and artificial butterflies are fundamentally not used to decorate bouquets - they were replaced by twigs and boxes of cotton, needles, dried flowers.

 

And, of course, this fashionable trend could not but be reflected in the colors used in the preparation of bouquets. So, today greenhouse roses and exotic orchids are no longer in trend - a real hit of our time - these are wildflowers, in general, and hairs, in particular. Taking this into account, we will talk about bouquets of these wonderful flowers further.

 

 

Voloshka - what kind of flower?

 

 

Voloshka in Ukraine and many other post-Soviet countries is also known under other names - cornflower, centravrius, blue aster, German flower, field aster and so on. This plant blooms from about mid-summer to late autumn. However, many believe that this flower has exclusively blue petals. In fact, the hair can be yellow, and pink, and purple, and white, and even red.

 

Cornflower growing in wheat fields is considered a weed. At the same time, this plant is actively used in medicine, cosmetology and even cooking. Yes, dried leaves are used as a seasoning in the manufacture of canned food, as well as in the preparation of various meat dishes.

 

 

Several legends

 

 

Introducing you to the hairs, it is certainly worth mentioning several legends about this flower. Having decided to order flowers of this type, you may well be able to retell one of them to the addressee and thereby start an interesting conversation.

 

For example, according to ancient Greek mythology, it was with the help of the juice of this flower that the centaur named Chiron healed himself from the poison of the many-headed water snake - the Linean hydra.

 

According to another, already Slavic legend, mysterious, alluring mermaids on especially moonlit nights come out of the water precisely in order to weave wreaths of hairs for themselves and then, decorating their heads with them, lure young boys into the water.

 

There is another legend about a young man named Cyanus (literally blue). So, according to legend, this young man was very fond of cornflowers and constantly collected them, weaved wreaths and garlands from them and could not leave the field until he picked all the beautiful flowers to one. And everything was fine, until one day the young man was found dead in his favorite field with flowers. Upon learning of this, Flora herself turned his body into the cornflower so beloved by the guy ...

 

 

In modern floristry

 

 

As for the modern floristic world, the summer bouquet of cornflowers came into fashion relatively recently, literally this season. But at the same time, a huge number of people have already appeared who want to order flowers of this particular type. It is curious that our employees deliver flowers with delivery (Kiev and suburbs) cornflowers to both ladies and men with the same frequency.
