The Language of Flowers

The language of flowers has been recognized throughout countries all over the world for centuries. You can find flower symbolism in notable works of art and literature. (From William Shakespeare to Jane Austen to J.K. Rowling!) 

The language of flowers was most notably popular in social culture during the Victorian era, seen as “the language of love.” You could use flowers to deliver messages or sentiments that couldn’t be spoken publicly. This was so widely used, that people often kept guidebooks in their homes to learn the symbolism and follow the proper protocol.

Whether you’re gifting flowers to someone special or express yourself with the flowers and plants you surround yourself with; this “language” is the perfect poetic tool to incorporate in your life!
