I read that the orchid is a symbol of refinement, wisdom, aristocracy. Orchid often symbolizes love, beauty and harmony, as well as family comfort. White orchid symbolizes pure love, motley - passionate desire. The pink color of the exquisite orchid petals means pure affection. Orchid in a bouquet is a symbol of love, refinement and ... large families. Very beautiful photos. Thank you for sharing
