"W Duke Sons Co: A Journey of Unfading Beauty and Versatility" Step aboard the Steamship La Champagne, a majestic vessel belonging to the renowned French Line. As it sails from the Ocean and River Steamers series (N83), it carries with it an array of enchanting floral beauties from the Floral Beauties and Language of Flowers collection. The Gilly-flower, symbolizing unfading beauty, blooms proudly on this voyage. Its vibrant petals whisper tales of timeless elegance and grace. Alongside it, the Iris delivers a sweet message, spreading joy and love throughout its surroundings. As we continue our exploration, we encounter the Clematis – a flower representing mental beauty. Its delicate tendrils reach out like thoughts intertwining in harmony. The China Aster joins us too with its versatile nature; ever-changing yet always captivating. Ah. Behold the Hollyhock – an embodiment of ambition standing tall amidst this floral symphony. It reminds us that dreams are meant to be pursued fearlessly. Meanwhile, the American Beauty Rose timidly reveals itself as a symbol of gentleness within this vast sea of blossoms. But alas. Sweet-Peas bid farewell to their beloveds in silent whispers - "Goodbye Sweetheart. " Their fragrant presence lingers even after they depart for distant shores. Amidst all these emotions lies Honeysuckle - faithful and true in its fidelity towards those who appreciate its sweetness. And there is Fuchsia too - tantalizing taste buds with every petal's hue. In this garden at sea, we find White Violet exuding candor through its pure white petals while Cornflower modestly graces our journey with simplicity and humility. Join W Duke Sons Co on this remarkable voyage where each bloom tells a tale woven into nature's tapestry. Let us immerse ourselves in their language as they speak volumes about life's intricacies – from unfading beauty to versatility, ambition to timidity, and fidelity to taste.
