25 Days to V-Day: Orange and Yellow Flowers

We're continuing our countdown to Valentine's Day with discussions of the significance of flower colors. We covered green earlier this month. To mark today as 25 days until V-Day, we're talking orange and yellow flowers.

According to Teleflora, orange flowers symbolize passion, energy, and enthusiasm. Orange sends a vibrant, confident message to the recipient. Yellow flowers represent joy, happiness, and friendship, and make a sunshiny statement.

Consider these possibilities as bright, sunny additions or as unique, unexpected focal points:
