The Language of Flowers
The Language of Flowers - Floriography
Let flowers say it for you! Flowers are full of symbology and meaning, with a long history of expressing sentiments, messages, and code when words alone fall short.
In this captivating series, we'll unravel the rich history and modern allure of floriography.
Join me in reviving this lost language and become fluent in floral speak. A language that transcends the ordinary and promises delight and connection for both the speaker and the recipient.
This isn't just a workshop; it's an invitation to step into a world where flowers become your dialogue, expressing sentiments in a language that goes beyond the spoken word.
We will focus on twenty common flowers (most known to herbal medicine as well) to form your language base. You will begin using this language immediately, with assignments to get you speaking this timeless language.
The series will culminate with an optional, in-person class in June, we will gather in my herb garden for immersive play with flowers at their peak, arranging specialty bouquets known as nosegays, posies and tussie mussies. You will leave with specially chosen blooms and a personalized bouquet, a memento of your newfound proficiency in the language that speaks directly to the soul.
