Birth flowers, month by month
Every month keeps a flower the way it keeps a stone — a softer twin. The meanings lean on the Victorian language of flowers, that 19th-century craze for saying with bouquets what couldn't be said aloud, grafted onto much older folk roots. It's inherited poetry with a delivery mechanism: a birthday bouquet that means something on purpose.

Flower meanings are the language of flowers and folk tradition — inherited poetry for gifts and self-portraits, not botany's opinion and not a promise.
