The Language of Flowers
URL: http://home.comcast.net/~bryant.katherine/flowers.html

Description:
This site features tables listing flower and plant names with their Victorian-era meanings. It also contains a glossary of meanings to aid users in finding a flower or plant to go with a specific thought or idea (e.g., Damask Rose represents "bashful love"). The information is taken from six books printed between 1853 and 1899.
