The Flower Code: A Guide to the Language of Flowers - Laura Wolf

A red rose for love, an anenome for expectation, and a small white bellflower for gratitude: the Victorian Language of Flowers took the world by storm with its ability to communicate meaning both subtle and specific.

Here you will find a collection of the reference guides used at the time - both Kate Greenaway's 1884 guide relevant to Europe and the UK, and the 1881 guide from Gems of Deportment, relevant to America - as well as a collection of story excerpts, descriptions of use, and explanations on how to arrange a bouquet to convey the desired meaning.

The perfect reference guide for authors, romantics and floriography enthusiasts.
