Floriography: The Little Box of Love

In the Victorian era, people didn't send text messages; they sent flowers. This was known as "Floriography"—the Language of Flowers. Every bloom held a specific meaning, allowing friends and lovers to communicate complex feelings without speaking a word.

The Little Box of Love revives this beautiful tradition. This beautifully presented gift box contains 12 full-sized packets of seeds, each chosen not just for its beauty, but for its specific sentiment. It is the perfect alternative to a fresh bouquet—instead of lasting a week, this gift grows into a whole summer of meaningful beauty.
