Bookish Selkie's Reviews > Floriography: An Illustrated Guide to the Victorian Language of Flowers (Volume 1)

Growing up, I was fascinated with the delicate and secret messages hidden in flowers! This book is incredible at explaining the language of flowers, with beautiful illustrations. Floriography is written in a very accessible and useful format, either for beginners or experts of this art. Clearly drawn with intense care, the illustrations are realistic and elegant. Floriography features examples of bouquets, relevant mythology or history, and flower pairing suggestions. Those who love flowers and seek a deeper understanding of the meaning behind them will want this for their shelves. I would definitely gift it to anyone with an interest in flowers or the language of flowers. Floriography releases September 15, 2020. Thank you to Jessica Roux, Andrews McMeel Publishing, and Netgalley for a free ARC in exchange for an honest review.
