What Your Favorite Flower Tells the World About You

Kassidy Emmerson
I appreciate the beauty of all flowers, but my favorite blossom is the rose. Just like other favorite things in your life- colors, pets, vehicles, clothing styles- your favorite flower reveals something about your personality. Whether you're generally happy or moody, exotic or old-fashioned, energetic or low-key, characteristics like these are said to be associated with certain types of flowers. Read this entertaining article and find out what your favorite flower tells the world about you!

Carnation
Choose the carnation and that shows you're likely a down-to-earth person. You are pragmatic and genuine. You know how to keep a secret. That's why family members and friends come to you for advice and guidance. Since your favorite flower is the carnation, you're probably traditional. You don't like change much.

Daisy
If the daisy is your favorite flower, you're optimistic. Your sunny disposition shines through in your relationships. You enjoy making others smile and laugh too. Once you're in a relationship, you're quite loyal. Choosing the daisy flower likely means you like new adventures. You likely love nature and the outdoors.

Iris
People who love the Iris flower become bored quickly with routine. You're energetic. Your creativity demands that you follow your inspirations. You work best when you are your own boss. You thrive on change and fresh experiences. You may be opinionated, but your faithfulness and openness gains respect from others.

Lily
If the lily is the flower of your choice, then you may be a nurturing person who enjoys caring for others. You like to take charge and be in control. Yet, the people around you don't mind because they respect you. People are drawn to you for your gentle advice that helps cheer unhappy hearts. You're likely proud of your life and what you have achieved.

Poppy
Pick the poppy as your favorite flower and you're telling the world that you're spirited and creative. You're unconventional, and maybe even a little quirky. You're always looking for a new adventure. You're likely to be expressive and hard to ignore.

Rose
People who love the rose are generally warm and passionate. Although you appear to be outgoing, you tend to be a bit shy. Your relationships are meaningful. You have a wide social circle, yet you enjoy quiet time by yourself. You're old-fashioned. You hold fast to tradition. You may strive for perfection in your life.

Tulip
Choose the tulip as your favorite flower and you thrive on change. No one will find you stuck in a rut. You're always thinking up ways you can improve your life. You may enjoy traveling and seeing new places. Although adventure makes your life exciting, deep down, you're at complete peace with yourself.

Violet
If you choose the violet as your favorite flower, you're sensitive and personal. You value your privacy. Because of this, it takes time to make friends and bonds. Once you do, though, others find out you're loyal and true. You're likely a sophisticated person who has a complex personality.

    Very interesting article. I like many but would have to pick the carnation- I love how long they last and changing their color with food coloring.
