Take a break from texting and posting to express yourself in the Victorian language of flowers.

During the Victorian era, secret sentiments could be expressed through the language of flowers, or floriography. A friend or lover could utter whole sentences by combining colours and varieties of plants and herbs and altering the position of the foliage. Floriography conveyed not only love and happiness - a well-chosen flower could express anything from indifference to passion. The Language of Flowers Colouring Book allows you to celebrate this charming tradition in full colour.
