Floriography is artist and illustrator Jessica Roux’s 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 close to 100 blooms, from flowers for a lover to flowers for an enemy.

The language of flowers 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.

• A beautiful botanical art book and coffee table piece with stunning full-color illustrations by bestselling artist Jessica Roux
• Ideal for readers interested in symbolism, folklore, and romantic traditions
