When her talent is discovered by a local florist, she discovers her gift for helping others through the flowers she chooses for them. Now eighteen, Victoria has nowhere to go, and sleeps in a public park, where she plants a small garden of her own. After a childhood spent in the foster care system, she is unable to get close to anybody, and her only connection to the world is through flowers and their meanings. But for Victoria Jones, it has been more useful in conveying feelings like grief, mistrust and solitude. The Victorian language of flowers was used to express emotions: honeysuckle for devotion, azaleas for passion, and red roses for love.

In Vanessa Diffenbaugh's powerful first novel, a damaged young woman, Victoria Jones, who can only communicate through the Victorian language of flowers, goes from being homeless to a sought after wedding floral designer.
