Origin and meaning of Flora
Flora springs from the Latin flos, floris, 'flower,' and was the name of the Roman goddess of spring and blossoming, honoured in the Floralia festivals. It carries an image of rebirth, natural beauty and youth. Found across much of Europe — Italy, France, Hungary and the English-speaking world — it is a timeless classic, loved for its gentle musicality and its clear link to the world of flowers.
