Floriography dates back to the Victorian era. Flowers and floral arrangements were sent to convey a coded message at a time such matters could not be discussed openly.

Red roses signify passion, love, and desire. Yellow roses meant friendship, joy and respect. Orange roses were for fascination. The daisy symbolized innocence while the foxglove represented insincerity.

There are also flowers that represent each month, much the same as birth stones. Were you born in June? Your flower is the rose. Violets are for February.

There are even flowers representing each sign of the zodiac. Taurus is the iris, tulips for Aries.
