Colorful Peruvian Lilies - By Dora Sofia Caputo
The vibrant and long-lasting Peruvian lily is native to South America, but its appeal has spread far beyond the land of its origin. Reminiscent of miniature lilies, Peruvian lilies can be found in a variety of colors, including brilliant shades of yellow, pink, orange, and white. With multiple blooms per stem, they can compose a magnificently full vase arrangement. Along with their meaning, this makes them a top choice for many flower-giving occasions.
Peruvian lilies are also called alstroemeria after the Swedish botanist credited with introducing them to Europe. In the late 18th century, Baron Von Alstroemer returned from a trip to South America with seeds from the Peruvian lily. Not long after this discovery, the flower found great popularity with flower-enthusiasts around the world. Today, the meanings of Peruvian lilies are Peruvian lily friendship and devotion. With so many gift-giving occasions that center on these themes, you may find Peruvian lilies to be a safe choice across the board. Whether you’re sending a bouquet just because, or for your friend’s birthday or graduation, the meaning of Peruvian lilies expresses your love and support in so many ways.
As a symbol of devotion, Peruvian lilies can say to a companion or loved one that you will always be there for them and that you trust in your lasting bond. The depth of meanings for Peruvian lilies is a compliment to their beauty, and the message that these flowers send is profound in its authentic simplicity.
