《哈利波特》Lily, Petunia and the language of flowers(莉莉、佩妮與花語)

The Victorian language of flowers was used back in the 1800s to send meaningful messages, convey deep secrets and share moments. Nearly every flower has a special meaning and, in times when some words could not be spoken aloud, bouquets would say a 1,000 words.
在十九世紀維多利亞時代，花語的用途是傳遞意義深遠的訊息、隱藏深沉的祕密和共享時光。幾乎每種花都有特別的意義，某些說話人們不敢宣之於口，一束花朵卻勝過萬語千言。

There are hidden meanings throughout all the Harry Potter books, but what do we learn about Lily, Petunia and Severus when we examine their stories with this language in mind?
