The language of flowers has been around since Victorian days when suitors gave their beloved a bouquet of flowers, each with significant meaning. The idea of flowers having meanings was not new but it became very popular in the 1800s and Language of Flowers books flooded the market. Roses, of course, were always associated with love as they are now, but what other flowers convey sentiments of love and romance and would be wonderful inclusions in a bouquet for that special someone?
Here are ten flowers that say love in different ways:
Red Tulip: Declaration of love
Honeysuckle: Bonds of love
Red Carnation: Passion, pure love
Larkspur: Ardent love
Forget-me-not: True love
White Dogwood: Love undiminished by adversity
Azalea: First love
Tuberosa: Dangerous love
Yellow Tulip: Hopeless love
Pansy: Loving thoughts
