Celebrate Love and Friendship with a Special Gesture
For some years now, every September 21st, Yellow Flower Day has been a modern festivity that has won over thousands of Peruvians, becoming the perfect excuse to express feelings of love, happiness, and friendship. The streets and social media in Lima fill up with a vibrant and cheerful color: yellow.
If you are looking for an original way to surprise someone special, this is your opportunity.
The Origin of a Viral Trend
Although it is not a traditional festivity, the origin of this date is fascinating. The idea came from the popular Argentine telenovela Floricienta, where the protagonist dreams of her beloved giving her yellow flowers. The song “Flores Amarillas” went viral, and the act of giving this type of flower on September 21st, which coincides with the start of spring in the Southern Hemisphere, was transformed into a global symbol of romance and new beginnings.
In Peru, and especially in Lima, the trend has been enthusiastically adopted, particularly among young people, who use the date to make a meaningful gesture to their partners, friends, and family.
The Meaning Behind the Color
The color yellow, in the culture of floriculture, is associated with:
- Joy and Optimism: Yellow flowers radiate light and positive energy.
- Friendship and Companionship: It is the ideal color to celebrate the bond and affection between friends.
- New Beginnings: It symbolizes the arrival of spring and the promise of a bright future.
