In my garden there is a large place for sentiment. My garden of flowers is my garden of thoughts and dreams. The thoughts grow as freely as the flowers, and the dreams are as beautiful. Is this you? Then join us here...you are welcome!

In Victorian times, certain flowers had specific meanings because the flower selection was limited and people used more symbols and gestures to communicate than words. But today, with so many flower
choices, there are no rules - it's the sentiment that gives the gift
its meaning. Your florist
can help you send the right message. Many people assign their own
personal meanings - a flower or color that might remind them of a
special event or moment in their lives. For those interested in the
historic meanings of flowers, the Society of American Florists has
compiled this list from a variety of different sources:
