These symbols have meanings, sometimes dating back to the earliest records of human history. Throughout civilization, flowers remain an intricate expression of emotion and feeling. A handful of daisies or a dozen long-stemmed roses entice passion in the soul. The fragrances of creation can overwhelm one's senses launching the spirit into an ecstasy of life. \u003cbr\u003e Although unknown to most, flowers have very specific meanings. Why do we have national flowers? What use is the poppy? What is the significance of mistletoe? The evolution of these meanings have developed into intensely varied definitions. Inferred through superstition and ancient lore to the physical nature of the plant, flowers have gained purpose for emblems, crests and celebrations of life and death. \u003cbr\u003e Mixed with poetry, facts and notable quotations, The Ancient Language of Flowers gives you the meaning of over 700 flowers and flowering plants, cross referenced by meaning or name.
