Harvard University, Texas A&M University, University of North Florida and Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey have all studied the benefits of having flowers in the home.
The research:
๐ปImproves memory related tasks in seniors:
100 seniors participated in a Rutgers research study, in which some received flowers and others did not. Participants in the active group showed a significant increase in happiness and improved performance on memory tasks.
๐ทIncreases workplace productivity and creativity:
In an eight-month study, the Texas A&M University research team explored the link between flowers and plants and workplace productivity. The study found participants generated a greater abundance of ideas and more creative solutions when flowers and plants were present.
๐ผDecreases stress and anxiety:
In a study of 170 women participants, the University of North Florida showed that people who lived with flowers in their homes for just a few days had a significant decrease in their levels of stress and improvements in their moods.
๐ฟ Increases compassion for others, reduces stress:
A behavioral research study conducted by Dr. Nancy Etcoff of Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School, revealed that people feel more compassionate toward others, have less worry and anxiety, and feel less depressed when fresh cut flowers are present in the home.
I personally love looking at fresh cut flowers first thing in the morning. Especially the dandelions my kids pick for me. โบ๏ธ
Do you notice a change in your mood and behavior when you have fresh cut flowers in your home?

Anyone who has had a beautiful bouquet of real flowers in their house knows that they have a positive impact on you!
Itโs fascinating that these anecdotal feelings that gardeners have always known have been found scientifically to be true! ๐ท๐ฌNow, Harvard has proved it.
The next time you think flowers are silly, just remember they can actually impact your mental well-being! Of all the studyโs findings, the most interesting to me is that it increased feelings of compassion and kindness toward others.
I donโt know about you, but with how busy life can get, thatโs a gift I donโt take for granted! Flowers do make people happy!
Whatโs even better is if those flowers came from your yard!
