'Bridgerton': the meaning of the flowers that appear at key moments for Colin and Penelope

The final chapters of the third season of 'Bridgerton' arrived on Netflix on June 13, 2024, a storyline centered around the love story between Penelope Featherington (Nicola Coughlan) and Colin Bridgerton (Luke Newton).

The released episodes so far have kept their fans hooked due to the romance and drama that characterizes this story... However, if you want to know more about what you have already seen, we will tell you some details that you might have missed.

For example, have you noticed the importance of flowers in many scenes featuring Colin and Penelope? Specifically, you should pay attention to the dance that takes place during episode six of this third season of 'Bridgerton'.

The meaning of flowers in the third season of 'Bridgerton'

As explained earlier, the romance between Colin and Penelope is very special and it is being represented through the series with unique moments, such as the famous dance from episode six of this season 3 of 'Bridgerton'.

As it is known, the artistic team chose a series of flowers with the purpose of decorating the dance and also of giving it a special meaning. Specifically, as indicated by the magazine Cosmopolitan, Alison Gartshore, production designer, took as a reference the book of the time 'The Language of Flowers' with the aim of giving a greater significance to these sequences.

Among the flowers we find geraniums (symbolizing joy and optimism), azaleas (symbolizing love, tenderness, and romance), amaryllises (symbolizing pride and beauty, and representing friendship and affection), passionflowers (known as "passion flower"), lilies (symbols of purity and innocence), hollyhocks (meaning care and protection), and tulips (symbolizing, among other things, true love).

Other curiosities of 'Bridgerton' season 3

There are many curiosities that we can find in 'Bridgerton', among them, it is known that, as Adrián Lude tells on his official TikTok account, the production offered Regé-Jean Page $50,000 per episode to return to interpret the Duke in other seasons. However, this did not happen.

And focusing on this third season, there are many details to mention. For example, the butterflies in 'Bridgerton' are a symbol of the Featherington family and throughout this third season they are hidden in a series of places, for example, the house railings, and also in clothing and accessories, for example, in Penelope's earrings, as explained from the TikTok account @CharlieTales.

It is also worth noting that, in this fourth book, Penelope loses weight as part of her character development, however, this does not happen in the series. In fact, they did not want to use this resource, as also explained from the TikTok account @CharlieTales, focusing instead on the development of her personality, mainly on overcoming her shyness.

Other curiosities would have to do with the fact that, as also known, the producers and creators of the fiction do not follow the order of the books, so for this third season they are based on 'Romancing Mr. Bridgerton', the fourth book.
