Fragrant Freesia


In the language of flowers, Freesia means "innocence and trust". It's a beautiful simple flower with many florets on one stem and a gorgeous perfume. Available in Australia through late winter and spring (though hot house production has increased availability), they come in white, yellow, deep red, mauve, deep purple, pink and deep pink. Freesia work well with lisianthus and roses and can be used in arrangements, bouquets, buttonholes and corsages. A single short stem works especially well as napkin decorations.
