The Symbolic or Cultural Significance of Tuberose

Tuberose is symbolic of both dangerous pleasure and sensuality. It's often used in ceremonies, like weddings, in various cultures for its heavy, intoxicating fragrance. In the Victorian language of flowers, it denotes 'dangerous' pleasures. Despite its alluring scent, it isn't heavily featured in feng shui, as it doesn't have any specific properties attributed to boosting energy or improving chi.

How to Select Healthy Tuberose?

When purchasing tuberose, look for vibrant, green leaves free of yellowing or brown spots, indicating good health. Ensure the plant is free from pests by inspecting the undersides of leaves and stems. A healthy tuberose should exhibit strong, upright growth and not appear wilted or droopy. Check that the soil is well-draining and smells fresh, not musty. Lastly, verify that tuberose has a robust root system without any signs of rot or decay.
