The Language of Flowers by Vanessa Diffenbaugh is a moving story of
hope and forgiveness, and an international bestseller. The
Victorians used flowers to express emotions: honeysuckle for
devotion, azaleas for passion, and red roses for love. For Victoria
Jones, flowers and their meanings are her only connection to the
world - although for her, they are most useful in expressing
feelings such as grief, mistrust and solitude. After a childhood in
the foster care system, Victoria - now eighteen - has nowhere to
go, and sleeps in a public park, where she plants a small garden of
her own. When her talent is discovered by a local florist, she
discovers her gift for helping others through the flowers she
chooses for them. But it takes a meeting with a mysterious vendor
at the flower market for her to realize what's been missing in her
own life. As she starts to fall for him, though, she must confront
a painful secret from her past - and decide whether it's worth
risking everything for a second chance at happiness.
