In Victorian times, certain flowers had specific meanings because the flower selection was limited and people used more symbols and gestures to communicate than words. But today, with so many flower choices, there are no rules - it's the sentiment that gives the gift its meaning. We can help you send the right message. Many people assign their own personal meanings - a flower or color that might remind them of a special event or moment in their lives.
