A charming, gorgeously illustrated botanical encyclopedia for your favorite romantic, local witch, bride-to-be, or green-thumbed friend.
Floriography is a full-color guide to the historical uses and secret meanings behind an impressive array of flowers and herbs. The book explores the coded significances associated with various blooms, from flowers for a lover to flowers for an enemy.
The language of flowers was historically used as a means of secret communication. It soared in popularity during the 19th century, especially in Victorian England and the U.S., when proper etiquette discouraged open displays of emotion. Mysterious and playful, the language of flowers has roots in everything from the characteristics of the plant to its presence in folklore and history. Researched and illustrated by popular artist Jessica Roux, this book makes a stunning display piece, conversation-starter, or thoughtful gift.

I love this book! It is beautifully laid-out with most every flower I could think of. I bought it for myself to help research flower meanings for tattoo work, but I get compliments from everyone who picks it up and I’ll definitely be buying more copies to give as gifts! Great for any flower lover or plant enthusiast.

This book has really lovely illustrations as well as the meaning and origin of the flowers included. I enjoy reading this book but also using it as a reference and inspiration for drawing.

Esse livro é a coisa mais linda do mundo, salvou muito meu bloqueio criativo, mesmo sendo em inglês ele é super didático, tem informações bem legais das flores e as ilustração são impecáveis. Fiquei chocada quando vi que tem boques no final do livro, uma surpresa muito boa. Ele fica lindo na decoração também, vai ser meu xodozinho.Sobre a entrega foi muito boa, nunca tenho problemas com a Amazon, chegou bem embalado e sem defeitos.

El libro es una maravilla. Las ilustraciones son preciosas y la descripción de las flores y venenos naturales y su uso y trascendencia en la época victoriana es fascinante (no busques el rigor cientÃfico de un libro de Botánica, eso no era lo que se buscaba en este caso). Recomendado!
