Description
A beautiful lakeside garden in downtown Kenosha, Wisconsin USA. Each year they try to plant new flowers in this lovely garden. Love all the hardscape pavers they used in this project!
Flowers had powerful meanings in the Victorian Era and were often given as a way to express
emotions. However, meanings and traditions change throughout time and culture. Today the flowers of
the Victorian Era do not have the same meanings they once did. After discussing symbolism, ask students
what is used today to express different emotions. Share a brief history of symbolism as it relates to
Victorian flowers:
In Victorian culture, flowers were the language of love. Learning the special symbolism of flowers
became a popular pastime during the 1800s when each flower was assigned a particular meaning.
Feelings that could not be proclaimed publicly could be expressed through flowers.
