Full Description

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING ILLUSTRATOR 

A charming, gorgeously illustrated botanical encyclopedia for your favorite romantic, local witch, bride-to-be, or green-thumbed friend.

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 was historically used as a means of secret communication. It 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. Researched and illustrated by popular artist Jessica Roux, Floriography makes a stunning display piece, conversation-starter, or thoughtful gift for floral fans, gardeners, and anyone interested in romanticism and historic traditions.
