Sending flowers is popular.More and more young people love to send flowers as a present for others.But there are some taboos on sending flowers.You cannot copy others without thinking.You should know how to choose flowers wisely.Here are some useful ideas about sending flowers.
Every flower has a certain meaning.If you want to congratulate your elders on their birthdays，you can send the jonquil or the Chinese evergreen.The former（前者）means "health and long life"，and the latter means "never growing old".
Every flower has its silent language.Let's take roses for example.When a man and a woman are in love with each other，the man usually sends roses to the woman.The roses are very beautiful.The most important thing is that their silent language is "love".
When you send flowers，you should also choose flowers according to the receivers' conditions.When you visit a sick person，you shouldn't send a potted（盆栽的）flower.The sick person may mistake your meaning.Some people might think getting a potted flower means they would be ill for a long time.If the receiver has had an operation（手術），you shouldn't choose flowers which have a strong smell.They may make him or her cough.
Don't forget to choose the right number of flowers.For example，don't send four flowers because "four" sounds like "death" in Chinese.Which numbers are good choices？Well，you can choose to send six，eight，nine or ten flowers.Chinese people agree that these numbers are good choices.
