Flowers

In modern times, people have sought ways to cultivate, buy, wear, or just be around flowers and blooming plants, partly because of their agreeable smell. Around the world, people use flowers for a wide range of events and functions that, cumulatively, encompass one's lifetime:

    * For new births or Christenings
    * As a corsage or boutonniere to be worn at social functions or for holidays
    * For wedding flowers for the bridal party, and decorations for the hall
    * As brightening decorations within the home
    * As a gift of remembrance for bon voyage parties, welcome home parties, and "thinking of you" gifts
    * For funeral flowers and expressions of sympathy for the grieving

People therefore grow flowers around their homes, dedicate entire parts of their living space to flower gardens, pick wildflowers, or buy flowers from florists who depend on an entire network of commercial growers and shippers to support their trade.
