The Secret Language of Flowers: What your Bouquet Really says

The Secret Language of Flowers: What Your Bouquet Really Says

For centuries, flowers have been more than just beautiful—they’ve carried hidden meanings, emotions, and messages. Known as floriography, the “language of flowers” was especially popular in the Victorian era, when people would exchange bouquets as a way of expressing feelings that words sometimes couldn’t.

At Little Petal Farm, we love the idea that every bloom tells a story. When you send or receive a bouquet, you’re not just sharing flowers—you’re sharing a message from the heart.

Roses: Love, Gratitude, and Friendship

  • Red roses speak of deep love and passion.

  • White roses symbolize purity and new beginnings.

  • Pink roses whisper gratitude, admiration, and joy.

  • Yellow roses are the classic flower of friendship.

Ranunculus: Charm & Radiance

Delicate and layered, ranunculus blooms say, “You are radiant with charm.” They’re a beautiful choice for weddings, anniversaries, or simply to brighten someone’s day.

Lilies: Renewal & Devotion

Lilies carry many meanings, but most often they symbolize purity, devotion, and the hope of renewal—perfect for new chapters in life.

Sunflowers: Happiness & LoyaltY

Bright and cheerful, sunflowers are the ultimate symbol of joy and unwavering loyalty. They’re like sending a burst of sunshine in a vase.

Peonies: Prosperity & Romance

Lush and full, peonies represent good fortune and romance, making them a favorite for weddings and special celebrations.
