Unknown Blossoms On Brooch

Post by silverly »

Does anybody recognize these blossoms? I've seen them on Danecraft and Hobe jewelry.

Danecraft also used this blossom on a round brooch. No mention of name for blossom found yet.

Thanks Traintime. I like the layout of the site. For now I'm going to say the name of the blossom is forsythia intermedia (Golden Bells/Golden Nugget).

The blossoms hang down on the branch.

My pleasure. Some days all you can do is keeping pounding in different keyword combinations until a useable reference jumps up. Did find one where you have to check boxes on an insanely long form to find your plant...you'd think there would be an easier way to go (sword leaves, long petals, three pointed).

I think that these are more likely to be lilies. In the language of flowers the lily has connotations of purity, virginity and devotion - just the thing to give your lady love, with a subtle hidden meaning!

Thanks! I'm kind of hung up on the Forsythia Intermedia or a variation, but I'll take a closer look at lillies. The meaning behind them is a perfect fit.
