The language of flowers, or floriography, is a form of cryptology in which flowers and floral arrangements are used to communicate sentiments and send messages. Floral dictionaries, which sought to help readers interpret the language of flowers, reached peak popularity in the mid-19th century, riding the waves of the gift book market between the 1820s and the 1860s.
This poem is from Charlotte de laTour's Langage des Fleur, one of the first floral dictionaries, originally published in 1819.
