It is believed that the language of flowers appeared in the East, and from there came to Europe. Although European mores more free and special needs in the "secret love language" was not, but its charm has conquered all.
With the help of flowers, lovers could exchange news, confess feelings and date, indicating the day and the hour.
Over time, the values of the same plant changed depending on many factors and sometimes completely contradicted each other.
However, in 1970, the Book of Love and Friendship was published in Germany, in which, in verse and prose, the meaning of many plants was explained. Here are some of the most frequently used by us in modern life and, believe me, you will be surprised at some values!

And this is an excerpt from the book "Language of Flowers", published in St. Petersburg in 1849
By taste, face and age
I have flowers in my garden:
Innocence give lily,
Poppy sleepy sugary husbands.
Fragrant lily of the field
To the friends of the humble Liza poor;
Narcissus unhappy and pale
Handsome men, busy themselves.
In the shadow of a violet pretending
The unknown talent is calling to himself;
The lover will meet the myrtle charming ...
