Language of Flowers

date posted: April 16, 2015

There’s a Language of the Flowers in which over
600 blooms have been assigned individual sentiments.

Thus was Kate Middleton able to send a message on her way down the aisle that spoke of gallantry (Sweet William), constancy (hyacinth), fidelity (ivy) and the return of happiness (lilies of the valley), along with marital love (myrtle.) All of this, mind you, while sticking to a royal tradition of all-white.

Playing with the language of flowers can be such fun. Especially as (not being Kate) you’re not bound by any specific Victoriana. You can assemble a batch of traditionally meaningful blooms that speak volumes to the florally literate – or decide that the flowers you fall in love with mean all the

blissful, hopeful, joyous things you want them to mean. Because flowers are the essence of wedding: unblushingly erotic, sensual in their delicate construction and lush perfume, poignant in their moment of beauty that contains the seeds of tomorrow and tomorrow.

The Victorians laid out a particular, specific Language of the Flowers; today’s Hudson Valley florists have the Rosetta stone, and THEY’LL HELP YOU WRITE YOUR OWN LOVE POEM IN BLOOMS.
