Communication through Flowers

Communication through flowers, also known as floriography, is a way people used flowers to convey specific messages and emotions without words. Each flower and its color carried particular meanings—like red roses symbolizing love or lilies representing purity. This language allowed individuals to express feelings discreetly or romantically, especially when direct communication was difficult or inappropriate. While less common today, it was a nuanced form of expressing sentiments, adding depth and symbolism to gift-giving and social interactions.
