Description

In the Victorian era, it was popular to use special meanings attached to different flowers to create bouquets that communicated a wide variety of sentiments that might be awkward or otherwise couldn’t be spoken aloud in prim-and-proper Victorian society.  With the help of any one of many popular flower “dictionaries” available at the time, one could communicate blinding love, deep longing or crushing regret with a handful of carefully selected blooms. Even today, we still associate red roses with love.
