In this exploration, we delve into the delicate world of floriography, examining how Victorians used the language of flowers to express their feelings, navigate social conventions, and indulge in the subtle art of floral communication. In the refined parlors and lush gardens of Victorian society, a silent and intricate language unfolded – a language not spoken but whispered through the vibrant blooms that adorned the era. This enchanting communication system, known as "floriography," allowed individuals to convey sentiments, emotions, and secret messages through carefully chosen flowers.
