I have recently been reading a book
on the Victorian language of flowers, which seems frankly fraught with dangers. So here are some suggestions for your Valentine’s bouquet:
Eglantine:
“These leaves in their sweet
fragrance remind me of yourself.”
Aconite/Borage:
“Your attentions are unwelcome.”
Camellia:
“How radiantly lovely you are!”
Pasque-flower:
“I have put aside worldly thoughts
and shall never marry.”
White
Campion:
“Meet me at dusk!”
Yellow
Rose:
“I love another.”
Aster:
“I regret my impetuousness. Do not
take me too seriously …”
Wishing everyone all the best luck
this Valentine’s!
