In the Victorian era flowers all held very particular meanings, and there was even considered to be a "language of flowers". Lovers could exchange bouquets of flowers and be able to convey meaning to each other without having to say a word. Forget-me-nots were a particular favorite, with their true blue color and obvious meaning: think of me, memories, nostalgia, or "forget me not"! They continue to be a popular flower today, and here are some lovely examples from Etsy.
