14. Flowers
What flowers have special meaning in your country?
I would say the Lotus is one of the most important flowers in my culture as it signifies the holy seat of Buddha and it's a symbol of purity of the heart and mind.
In my culture the sunflower is much appreciated one as it symbolizes solar energy and fertility and, thereby, well-being.

When was the last time you gave flowers to someone?
Have you sent flowers to others?
I like flowers very much because they are beautiful and have a wonderful smell. I guess giving flowers to a woman is a nice romantic gesture and the best way to show a man's feelings. At the same time, I can't help admitting that I shy away from roses on first dates because in my perception they signifv deep passion. For this occasion, I prefer receive mixed in-season bouquets.
