Singapore Online florist providing flowers, cakes, balloons, wines Each year we are faced with new challenges, different situations and an ever-changing world. Some of these may be good; others less so and at times, life might seem like it’s getting just a tad too much. For all those occasions and many, many more – even if it is just for a general “Thank you” occasion – there is the wonderful gift of flowers. March was named after the Roman god of war, Mars. It was also the first month of the year in ancient Rome and is still celebrated as such in some cultures due to the fact that it denotes the first month of spring. The flower of March is the Daffodil, also known as the Jonquil and the Narcissus, and has an associated story. It speaks of a man in ancient Greece who loved his own image so much that he could not stop admiring his own image in a stream. While some say he fell in and drowned, others claim he was so in love with his own image that he starved while being preoccupied with admiring himself. From the place of his death sprung the Narcissus flower. In terms of floral meaning, the Daffodil is a symbol of desire, sympathy and formality.
