Since ancient times, flowers, herbs and other plants have been used in symbolic ways to convey a multitude of emotions and feelings, creating a unique form of communication. In this book, flowers are arranged in chapters according to their meanings, starting with Qualities & Virtues and moving on to Happiness, Friendship, Love & Passion, Marriage, Family, Beauty, Youth & Age, Ambition & Success, Sadness & Loss - making it simple to identify the right bloom for any occasion. For example, give polyanthus for confidence, orchids for beauty, or lilac for the first stirrings of love.
