About

Alexandra Richards, from Twiggage and Bloom will be guiding particpants in creating beautiful bouquets and poems using Floriography, a trend of sharing heartfelt emotions from the Victorian times. It is the art of encoding messages in a bouquet based on the chosen flowers and their assigned meanings.

Using the definitions and phrases provided, poems will be created! This will all be photographed to create a unique digital anthology, before the bouquets and poems are taken home.

Our facilitator will be in touch the week prior to the program start date to see if you have any support needs or if prior experience should be considered in the lesson. Please cancel if you cannot attend to allow for others on the waitlist the opportunity to join.
