Description
Hydrangeas In Shades of Purple and Blue - Dora Sofia Caputo
Hydrangea symbolizes heartfelt emotions. It can be used to express gratitude for being understood. In its negative sense hydrangea symbolizes frigidity and heartlessness. First discovered in Japan, the name hydrangea comes from the Greek “hydor,” meaning water, and “angos,” meaning jar or vessel.
This roughly translates to “water barrel,” referring to the hydrangea’s need for plenty of water and its cup-shaped flower. According to a Japanese legend, a proud emperor used a bouquet of hydrangeas as an apology to the family of a girl with whom he was in love.
