According to an article I read in one of our newspapers last weekend (Lifestyle - Sunday Times) Victorians used "floriography" (??) = the language of flowers - to communicate certain messages. So each month (of the year) is "marked" by certain "symbolic" flowers - for August: gladiolus, noted for moral integrity & sincerity . . .
. . . as well the poppy - the flower of magical dreams!
If your birthday falls in this month - enjoy these blooms :)
