A Flower Basket
Florist in Austin, TX
During this time of strict protocol and conformity, women and men used the beauty and color of flowers to express emotions, wishes and thoughts they dared not speak, and every corsage, bouquet, and garland represented a carefully chosen sentiment. Presentation was important; for example, a bouquet with a ribbon tied to the left told about the giver, while a ribbon tied to the correct signified the receiver.
