1. Flowers Decrease Depression. Study participants showed a significant increase in happiness and positive moods when flowers were present.

2. Flowers Refresh Recent Memory. Seniors performed higher on everyday memory tasks and experienced enriched personal memories in the presence of flowers.

3. Flowers Encourage Companionship. Seniors who received flowers re-engaged with members of their communities and enlarged their social contacts to include more neighbors, religious support and even medical personnel.

Instinct tells us that flowers lift our spirits, but, their effects on seniors are especially profound, if not surprising. Happier people live longer, healthier lives and are more open to change, with a small dose of nature, (like flowers) and can do a world of wonder for our well-being as we age.
