"A day without laughter is a day wasted" so said Sir Charlie Chaplin.
Give me some tulips and I will be the happiest and smiling person in the world, I might add.
Did you know that tulips represent true love and for a declaration of love should give a bouquet of red tulips (perhaps with a Luca Barra jewel).
Although many are convinced that the flower that symbolizes love is the rose that is not entirely true: the true symbol of perfect love, honest one, eternal, selfless, and I would add also rare, is the tulip, at least according to what that the ancient legends and popular literature passed us.
The name "tulip" comes from turkish "tullband" headdress, turban, probably because of the characteristic of this lovely flower.
According to an ancient Persian legend, the oldest of those who see the tulip as the protagonist, this was born from the drops of blood of a young boy who committed suicide following a terrible disappointment in love. Even in the famous collection of fairy tales "The Arabian Nights" the tulip is associated with love: in fact, according to the accounts, the sultan dropped a red tulip at the foot of one of the women of the harem to show them what was the chosen .
It was later in the sixteenth century that this beautiful flower gained great popularity in Turkey, during the reign of Suleiman the Magnificent Ottoman sultanate, from whose court were brought first to Vienna, then in Holland and England, and finally in the arms of your princess for cheer and perfuming her spring days, dreaming about a #fugaromantica in Amalfi Coast.
