Hydrangea
Floriography
The Victorians viewed hydrangea flowers negatively. The misconception that hydrangeas absorbed toxins from the soil and were poisonous contributed significantly to this unfavourable reputation. Additionally, hydrangeas were frequently associated with boastfulness or arrogance, further cementing the flower's negative connotations.
However, it is essential to recognise the fluid nature of symbolism and interpretation. While the Victorians viewed hydrangeas through a lens of negativity and danger, contemporary perspectives have shifted. These blooms are often regarded as symbols of gratitude, grace, and abundance. The evolution of meanings attached to any flowers underscores the significance of considering context when deciphering their symbolism.
