1. Flowers make people smile.

To learn about the effect of colors on humans, 2 professors began their research at Rutgers. In a series of experiments, they presented the participants with different gifts - a fruit basket, a beautiful candle, and a bouquet of flowers. By observing their reactions, it was noted that people were happier when they received flowers and smiled sincerely.

2. They make people happy for a few days.

Flowers evoked a "Heartfelt smile" in people, the most sincere smile that touches the eyes, mouth, and cheeks. This reaction was not observed in people when they were given other gifts. In fact, it was observed that people who received flowers were happier than others when receiving other gifts, even after 3 days.

3. They reduce stress like pets.

Jannette Haviland, one of the researchers, added that the flowers are like pets of the plant kingdom. Just as playing with puppies and kittens reduces stress, flowers induce the same happiness and lift our spirits.

4. They bring you closer to people and help you avoid depression.

Flowers can also bring you closer to your family, friends, and loved ones. According to the expert, receiving flowers as a gift releases "happy chemicals" in our bodies, increasing the levels of dopamine (responsible for well-being), oxytocin (responsible for bonding and love), and serotonin (antidepressant), which keep us alert and happy.
