Program Description

Event Details

Say “I love you,” “I loathe you” or anything in between. Nowadays we gift flowers to express affection, gratitude or sympathy, but in Victorian times sending secret, coded messages through carefully selected bouquets was all the rage. In this program learn the language of flowers – also called floriography – and the origins of those meanings. Explore how to put together different combinations to express a whole range of feelings – send a message of encouragement or good luck, share regrets or warnings, or even end a relationship.
