Garden of gardenia. Watercolor delicate flowers

The gardenia flower is best known for its sweet and intoxicating scent. However, these refined, waxy blossoms are also loved for their exotic, bright white blossoms and heavy green foliage.  The gardenia flower – because of its elegant appearance and strong aroma – has long been used in fashion, weddings and cosmetics. In France, it has become a tradition for men to wear gardenias in their boutonnieres; real or silk gardenias can be seen in the hair of both brides. These flowers are also thought to symbolize healing, purity and beauty. As a gift they can represent love from afar and may be given to a crush or unknowing friend, as they were often thought to say, “I am secretly in love with you.” Gardenias may also be given solely for their simple, graceful beauty.  This watercolor set included: --- - 23 watercolor element (leaf and flowers) - jpg, psd file - 9 pretty bouquet, jpg, png - 9 frames, jpg, png - 4 seamless pattern on a white background jpg, transparent png - 18 seamless pattern on a colored background, jpg - 4 wreath, jpg, png ---  Thank you!
