Every place and every stone tells a story. Sometimes hidden and subtle, sometimes powerful and unmistakable. "Tell me with flowers" is an ongoing project of make-up artist Antonia Rosa. Often flowers by the wayside go unnoticed, though they are mysterious and overflowing with hidden messages and can represent the inner us without words. The old city of Porto in the light of the blue hour provides the perfect backdrop for this story. In part one we are featuring mesmerizing gowns from Portuguese designers Luis Buchinho and Francisco Felix.

Anthurium (/ænˈθjuːriəm/; Schott, 1829) is a genus of about 1,000 species of flowering plants, the largest genus of the arum family, Araceae. The white Anthurium stands for innocence and purity.
The shamrock is present in symbolism of many cultures. In Christianity it represents the Trinity. Clover stands for summer and symbolizes love. The four-leaf clover is considered a lucky charm.
Oncidium orchids have yellow flowers with reddish-brown spots and are therefore also known as tiger orchids. The name Oncidium derives from the Greek word “onkos” for callus or bulge.
In a Celtic legend Daisies stand for purity and innocence but can also be used to symbolize beauty, love, and fertility, along with motherhood, childbirth, and new beginnings.
The word “pansy” is derived from the mid-15th century French word “penser,” which means to think or ponder. A purple pansy is used to symbolize nobility, beauty, and royalty.
