The History of the Language of Flowers

The Flower Shed16 May, 2023Entertainment

Throughout the Victorian era, a symbolic language of flowers--known as floriography--emerged and was adopted by people to communicate taboos or even romantic declarations. This language was based on the flower's individual meaning and its arrangement in the bouquet. As time has passed, more flowers have been added to this list and their meanings associated with various events. Floriography is still alive today, with different kinds of blooms and arrangements conveying particular messages delivered through Melbourne Florist.
