In the era of Victorians, flowers were basically used to convey messages that could not be spoken or described in words. In what was considered as silent dialogue flowers were mostly used to say yes or no.
If the right hand was used to hand over the flowers it was considered as yes and if the left hand was used then it was considered as a no message.
Victorian gentlemen are basically used in giving flowers to the most special woman in your life. Victorian gentlemen ensure that every flower in a given bouquet is chosen carefully so that it is used to express the exact feelings and also love for the girl of their dreams.
In the times of Victorian age, each flower was used to signify a particular emotion and they were packed with extreme care and after doing thorough research and now these meanings are used in the floral industry to make floral arrangements and bouquets more special and full of emotions.
