Recently acceptance towards girls being tattooed has risen and now we more and more see people with flower tattoos. The greatist thing about floral tattoos is that they have many meanings and there are hundreds of them. When we look at the general flower doctrine, we would see that they mean few things but specific flower tattoos usually mean specific things.
Meanings of a flower only as a flower are things like birth, vitality and so forth. We give it that meaning because we see the human lifespan in it.We see a flower emerge from the earth, and then grow day by day Walking, blooming, and then...wilting away.
Seeing a tattoo connects us with our whole being. Furthermore, the colore of the flower tattoo matters as well - for example if its white, it might mean purity, and if it's red it might mean passion.
Someone with a rose tattoo probably gives it the meaning of love. In the past people were tattoed with roses if they were sentenced to death so guards could recognize them if they wanted to escape. The meaning of this flower tattoo comes from the fact that it is given in a romantic occasion. Now you can see the reason of roses being tattooed to show love.
In the west we might give that meaning to a rose, but in the east they give to the lotus flower, along with several other meanings.
