Floriography: An Illustrated Guide to the Victorian Language of Flowers

Floriography is a beautifully illustrated encyclopedia of the meanings and uses of a large array of flowers and herbs. It’s important to know the significance of each bloom. As the language of flowers was historically used to communicate secretly, its popularity grew during the 19th century, especially in England and the US, when public displays of emotion were discouraged. From the characteristics of the plant to its place in folklore, such communication was always playful and mysterious. Illustrated by Jessica Roux, this book makes a perfect gift.
