Where does the flower language come from?
The 'language of flowers' is old... very old! The concept was introduced in the 18th century by Lady Mary Wortley Montagu who left for Turkey in 1716 with her husband. In Turkey people were very interested in flowers (especially the tulip was very popular!) and their meanings. In her letters to England Mary wrote about what she learned in Turkey about the 'language of flowers'. This language became very popular in the 19th century under the impulse of Queen Victoria. There were even books about it! So when you got a bouquet of flowers at that time, there was undoubtedly a deeper meaning behind it. .
