Beautiful autumn flowers
When you think of flowers, autumn may not be the first season that comes to mind. Nevertheless, autumn has an impressive range of flowers in beautiful autumn colours. Autumn flowers have a unique charm that ranges from delicate to exuberant, and together they form an enchanting autumn bouquet that brightens up any interior.
The origin of the autumn colours
The transition from summer to autumn causes the temperature to cool down and daylight to decrease. This will also cause the flora to adapt. Both plants and flowers respond to this by entering the process of discoloration. The green pigment (chlorophyll pigments) that create vibrant, green colors in the warm months begin to decrease, revealing other hidden pigments such as carotenoids and anthocyanins. This results in a dance of warm autumn colors.
The meaning of autumn flowers
Flowers have a meaning in every season. Spring flowers, for example, are associated with renewal and growth. Autumn flowers, on the other hand, represent gratitude, abundance, and change. The transition from bloom to discoloration reflects the cycle of life, reminding us to enjoy each season, including the changes it brings.
