Herbal Love Lore

In bygone days herbs and flowers were used to send messages to ones loved ones.  They had symbolic meanings attached to them and the person receiving the bouquet would understand the hidden meaning in the blooms and leaves.  If a young woman received a bouquet of red roses, it was a symbol of romantic love, much as it is today. The romantic use of herbs was at its height during Victorian times, when herbs and flowers were combined to create romantic success and contentment.  Communicate your feelings of love with some of the herbs described here.


Basil —  Originally the Romans associated basil with hatred, only meant to drive men crazy.  Eventually it became a symbol of love in Italy, and has retained that symbolic meaning ever since. In the folklore of Moldavia, a young man who accepts basil from a young woman is destined to fall in love with her.
