Jessica Roux All Books Editorial Review
Floriography: An Illustrated Guide to the Victorian Language of Flowers by Jessica Roux is a beautifully illustrated book that showcases Victorian flower meanings and their use in conveying particular messages. The illustrations are full-page and flawlessly rendered with muted colours in-keeping with the Victorian style.

The bouquets section highlights some of the most popular combinations of more than two flowers and the meaning behind each flower used in the bouquet. This book is ideal for anyone who enjoys flowers, art, or history and offers an incredible reference point when giving flowers as gifts.
