Answer:

Ancient Egyptians are known as the first florists. They created a designs of very highly stylized wreaths, garlands, and centerpieces for big events such as banquets, processions, burials, and temple offerings. In addition, flower arrangements were a luxury only available for the nobility and royals.

Characteristics of Egyptian floral design include order, simplicity, and repetition of a particular pattern. Flowers, fruits, and foliage were arranged in vessels like spouted vases and baskets. It is quite peculiar, because the Egyptians rarely showed a flower's stem and every blossom was flanked by additional leaves or buds.

Most often they used roses, acacia, poppies, violets, jasmine, lilies, and narcissus. They made their selections based on the symbolic meanings that they attributed to each flower, and the lotus blossom, in particular, was considered sacred. They believed its yellow center and white petals signified Ra, the Sun God, and its use was ubiquitous. [4.]

Lotus blossoms were mainly used to decorate floral burial tributes and, of course, they were used as a symbol of beauty and as some kind of fashion accessories.
