What Are These Flowers Saying???

"Flowers have an expression of countenance as much as men or animals.
Some seem to smile; some have a sad expression; some are pensive and diffident;
others again are plain, honest and upright, like the
broadfaced sunflower and the hollyhock."
Henry Ward Beecher, Star Papers: A Discourse of Flowers
