๐Ÿ’Wednesday Flower Facts๐Ÿ’

๐Ÿ’LILIES๐Ÿ’

1.
some of the most popular flowers on earth, found in North America, Asia, Europe, and Australia. Throughout the world, theyโ€™re cultivated mainly for decorative purposes, but some uses for the bloom may surprise you โ€“ among many other interesting facts about lilies!

While the white lily is one of the most common wedding flowers around the globe, and you might think you know everything about it, there are a few interesting facts about lilies you might never have heard. Luckily weโ€™re here to walk you through some of our favorite lily facts:

2.
๐Ÿ’Lilies in The Wild๐Ÿ’

Lilies are perennial plants, meaning they can survive (and grow!) in nature without much human intervention. They flower during the spring and summer and go dormant during the winter. And theyโ€™re resourceful: they can develop from both a bulb and a seed, and grow anywhere from two to six feet in height depending on the species.
The lily is incredible for pollinators, attracting insects with its large colorful flowers and tasteful nectar. Certain species of lily are pollinated by wind, while others are pollinated by bees!
Lilies have large petals that can be white, yellow, orange, red, purple or pink in color. They can even have freckles! In fact, the Tiger Lily is named for its orange with brown spots.
Lilies are social plants, growing best in groups of three to five

3.
๐Ÿ’ Lilies in Bouquets ๐Ÿ’

Lilies have one of the longest in-vase lifespans of any cut bloom, and a professional way to make them keep even longer is to clear out the pollen from their centers. This will also prevent staining on the petals.
Lilies are non-toxic to humans, but are poisonous to cats! Keep these pretty blooms away from your furry friends. Even the smallest amount of exposure can cause renal failure.
While people generally think of all lilies as being scented, in reality, only the white lily and the tiger lily omit any fragrance. So if youโ€™re planning a Bouq for the indoors, be sure to snag one of those two blooms.
If you need help learning to maximize the vase life of your lilies, weโ€™ve got you covered..

4.
๐Ÿ’ Lilies Around the World ๐Ÿ’

The lily has a diversity of symbolism throughout the world. In fact, different colored lilies represent different things altogether. While the white lily represents purity, the tiger lily represents pride or confidence. In Japan and China, lilies are a traditional symbol of good luck, whereas Greek lore associates the flower with motherhood. Pink Stargazer lilies represent hope for wealth and prosperity while white Peruvian lilies are a symbol of devotion.
Although these flowers are toxic to our furry friends, lilies have been used medicinally and in cuisine for centuries. The edible bulbs are cultivated in China and Korea, where they are most popular in the northern and central regions. Dried lilies are an ancient laxative or diuretic, and wood lily roots are used to treat stomach disorders and fevers.
Dried or fresh bulbs, which have soothing and astringent properties, can be useful in treating inflammation and even ulcers.

5.
๐Ÿ’ A Lily By Any Other Name ๐Ÿ’

All species of lilies belong to the genus Lilium, an umbrella category that houses more than 100 species of flower. That said, lilies grow in nearly every shape and color!
Watch out for imposters: The calla lily and water lily, for example, arenโ€™t really lilies. The calla lily is from a genus of flowering plants called (of course) Calla, whereas water lilies belong to the Nymphaeaceae family. Learn to spot the difference between lilies and Callas.
Of course, you donโ€™t need to be an expert on lily facts to enjoy the scent and beauty of lilies. We canโ€™t deny that here at The Bouqs Co., we appreciate a good trivia lesson on any flower! If these interesting facts about lilies have you feeling as inspired as they have us, donโ€™t hesitate to order a bouquet of lily flowers for an elegant addition to any room. When buying flowers online, visit The Bouqs Co. where you can order stargazer lilies, white rose lilies, and many more lilies and all your favorite farm-fresh blooms.

**SUNFLOWERS**

Ten Fascinating Facts About Sunflowers

1. Native to the Americas**
Sunflowers originated in the Americas and were cultivated as early as 3000 BCE for food, medicine, dye, and oil. Spanish conquistadors spread them to other parts of the world around 1500.

2. Royalty Introduced Them to Russia**
Tsar Peter the Great saw sunflowers in the Netherlands and brought them to Russia. They became widely grown when people realized sunflower seed oil was allowed during Lent by the Russian Orthodox Church, unlike other oils. By the 19th century, Russia planted two million acres of sunflowers each year.

3. A Plant with Lasting Appeal**
In the 19th century, Russian immigrants brought improved sunflower seeds with larger blooms back to the U.S., reigniting interest in this plant. The production of sunflower oil took off in Missouri in 1946, leading to a surge in sunflower farming.

4. Sunflowers Follow the Sun**
Young sunflowers display heliotropism, meaning they face east in the morning and follow the sun across the sky throughout the day.

5. Tallest Sunflower on Record**
Hans-Peter Schiffer set a new Guinness World Record in 2014 with a sunflower reaching 30 feet and 1 inch, marking his third consecutive record.

6. Healing History**
Sunflowers were used in Mexico to relieve chest pain, and various Native American tribes recognized their healing properties. The Cherokee used sunflower leaf infusions for kidney health, while the Dakota used them to treat chest pain and respiratory issues.

7. Sunflowers in Space**
In 2012, astronaut Don Pettit brought sunflower seeds to the International Space Station and documented their growth process, sharing his experience with the world.

8. A Cluster of Tiny Flowers**
Each sunflower head comprises thousands of small flowers. The outer ray florets don't reproduce, but the central disc florets contain both male and female parts, capable of self-pollination or receiving pollen via wind or insects.

9. Repurposed as Scrubbers**
Once the seeds are harvested, sunflower heads can be used as disposable scrubbing pads for tough cleaning tasks.

10. Largest Producer of Cut Sunflowers**
The Netherlands is the largest producer of cut sunflowers, thanks to its extensive flower industry and favorable climate conditions for growing sunflowers.

๐Ÿ’๐Ÿ’๐Ÿ’WEDNESDAY FLOWER FACT ๐Ÿ’๐Ÿ’๐Ÿ’

"The dandelion is the only flower that represents the three celestial bodies of the sun, moon, and stars: The yellow flower resembles the sun, the puffball resembles the moon, and the dispersing seeds resemble the stars.

The dandelion flower opens to greet the morning and closes in the evening to go to sleep.

Every part of the dandelion is useful: root, leaves, and flower. It can be used for food, medicine, and dye for coloring.

Up until the 1800s, people would pull grass out of their lawns to make room for dandelions and other useful โ€œweedsโ€ like chickweed, malva, and chamomile.

The name dandelion is taken from the French word โ€œdent de lionโ€ meaning lionโ€™s tooth, referring to the coarsely-toothed leaves. ๐Ÿฆ

Dandelions have one of the longest flowering seasons of any plant.

Dandelion seeds are often transported away by a gust of wind and they travel like tiny parachutes. Seeds are often carried as far as five miles from their origin!

Birds, insects, and butterflies consume the nectar or seeds of dandelions. Honey from bees pollinating dandelions is quite delicious. ๐Ÿฆ ๐Ÿ› ๐Ÿœ ๐Ÿฆ‹ ๐Ÿ

Dandelion flowers do not need to be pollinated to form seeds. The root of the dandelion can be used as a substitute for coffee.

Dandelions are used in folk medicine to treat infections and liver disorders. Tea made from dandelion acts as a diuretic.

If you know dandelions, theyโ€™ll grow shorter stalks to spite you.

Dandelions are, quite possibly, the most successful plants that exist. They are masters of survival worldwide."
