Floriography is the language of flowers.
Herbs & flowers have been given meaning since ancient times.

Think of me - White Clover

You are radiant with charm - Buttercup

Strength - Fennel

At Parsley & Rue, we grow and design with a wide variety of organic herbs, with flowers as the supporting actors. We like nothing more than introducing you to how beautiful herb-focused floristry can be, and to the long-held meanings associated with herbs & flowers. We call our style herbal floriography.

Parsley & Rue is all about bringing a top-tier flower & herb subscription service to the urban Seattle area, as well as fun and highly educational floral design, floriography, herb, gardening and pottery workshops.

Herbs bring incredible scent combination possibilities to floral design, as well as their diverse foliage and beautiful flowers (which many never see, as herbs are usually harvested before they bloom.) We love that at times the organic herbs used in your arrangement can also later be placed in water to root and grow, so you can add to your own herb garden at home.

Every CSA bouquet includes a Floriography card, so you know exactly what is in your arrangement, and the floriography meanings associated with each plant. Your education in the language of flowers grows with each arrangement—before long you’ll be fluent!

Please take a look at our CSA subscription options and process, and at our Workshop offerings. We look forward to bringing exquisite herb+flower arrangements—and their meanings—directly to you.
