    Especially in Victorian times, people used to ascribe meanings to flowers and some other plants, keeping this meaning in mind when giving them to others. What does the strawberry symbolize?

    Question #96040. Asked by vene. (May 25 08 3:40 PM)


    Verbonica

    		Used for love spells, its symbolism is that of love, temptation, passion and rewarded effort.

    		Sorry Verbonica, this was not the one I was looking for, although its Celtic meaning is certainly interesting. I'll give a hint: the key word is 'Victorian'.

    		Well, there's also this one:

    Symbol of purity and sensuality, fertility and abundance, humility and modesty.
