Violet 

A color I want to talk about is, Violet. There is between 400 and 500 kinds of violet flowers, which covers dozens of countries. The most common flowers of violet are found in the U.S. there are around 60 kinds found in the country. The most common are the Blue-violet and Sweet violets. Sweet violets are known for their smell. And while they can also be found in the U.S., they're native to Europe and Asia.
Blue-violet- is a very uplifting color and the color blue is also a calming and cooling color


Did you know violets have been around since Ancient Greece? Violets have been refined for centuries, with the earliest known use of the flowers dating back to Ancient Greece in 500 B.C. The Greeks used violets for everything like in their wines, foods, and medicines, and they actually loved the flower so much that it became the symbol of Athens. In Ancient Rome, the violet dye was made from snails.



Violet is the color of the giving, using its better judgment to do good for others. Bringing together  wisdom and power with kindness and lack of pride, violet can achieve a lot for those less fortunate too. Therefore violet is magic and mystery color.
