A dot marks symbols that may show as color emoji on phones.

Text flowers and blossoms in outline and solid styles.

Bows, ribbons and loops
Unicode has one bow, the ribbon emoji. Loops and knots fill in around it.
Everything runs in your browser. What you type is not uploaded or saved. These styles are Unicode symbols, so how they look depends on the device and app you paste into.
Flowers in text and in color
The first group holds text flowers drawn as outlines, solids and bursts, plus a couple of plant marks. They follow the color of your text. The second group holds flower and plant emoji, which phones draw as color pictures.
The floral hearts and leaves, such as ❦ and ❧, are printing ornaments. They suit the end of a line or a place beside a title.
About bows
Unicode has only one bow, the ribbon emoji 🎀, so there is no set of text bows to copy. The last group puts it with a few loop and knot symbols a wrapped present and a spool of thread, which pair well with it. Look at the name under the tray to see what each one is.
Combining them
Choose “Add it to my tray” and build a short row, such as a flower, a leaf and a flower. A short pattern holds up better than a long one, and a row with only text symbols will keep one color.
Common questions
Is there a bow symbol in plain text?
No. Unicode has the ribbon emoji 🎀, which is drawn as a color picture, but it does not have a text-style bow.
Why are some flowers colored and others not?
Emoji such as 🌸 are drawn as color pictures. Characters such as ✿ and ❀ are plain text and take the color of the text around them.
Will every device show these?
Most modern ones do. A few of the rarer symbols may show as an empty box on an older device or in a limited app.
