Kimi Dake ni Focus

is shounen ai, and the only thing about flowers is that one of the characters works as a florist and you see lots of them...
But is really really beautiful, very nice for a one shot.

Heh. Hanamatsuri, though not in the way you're thinking. The "flowers" here are not necessarily the type that grow in the ground.

Penguin Prince: as you already read Dengeki Daisy, why don't you try to read this too. The third and four story are flower-related theme

And hey, can't remember Please Save My Earth have flower theme in it... lol... I should reread it!

Glass Mask has a hidden flower language theme unintentionally or intentionally. The purple rose means love at first sight and admiration

Can I offer you a cactus? 😀 Saboten no Himitsu

Snow Drop (AKIMOTO Nami) can't remember exactly though if there's flower language theme inside. The title signifies it and it's the same author that wrote Les Mille Fleurs

and keep the list going guys... since it's almost Valentine, I think I would like to read more about flower language XD

Penguin Prince looks nice. Thks!
I have read Snow Drop. It's sequel/prequel of Les Mille Fleurs. The story is about the older brother.
Saboten no Himitsu.. wow, i don't mind cactus. Actually cactus flower is sweet. But the cover/artstyles gives me hints that it won't be a deep story...? My bad, not should be picky.
(Ugh i judge the book by its cover)
@juls91 oh thanks! i'm curious to read your rec.
@wolf_unknown Hanamatsuri seems interesting. Thanks!
And
add more Cat Street : Keito is the name of coxcomb flower - meaning unfading love.

Hanazono no Himitsu the family runs a flower shop. Can't remember if they use flowers in the story as symbolism

I don't know if Cardcaptor Sakura can also count. Her name is Sakura. Her mother's name I think is Nadeshiko... which is also a flower no?

Alpine Rose instead of straight flower language, I think it's more about song titled Alpine Rose.I read it a long long time ago so I maybe wrong

Jaki No Sakura I think so too. The brother used "flower hunting" as a phrase that he used when he hunted enemies

Also there's a couple of Sunflower theme story but when I google it, it's not on the database. Probably just because I don't know the Japanese title of it. Anyhow, will add if I remember anything else

Saboten no Himitsu is nothing complex. Leave it I think on second thought

yep, i had thought of CCS too. but they don't put any meaning of the name/flower... (the symbolism).
I read Alpine Rose too, long time ago. Looks like we came from the same era ^^
Gonna check the rest
lot of thkssss
*Do you know a oneshot about morning glory girl named saaya/saayaka?? It was include in a long series that I read a long time ago. (If my memory was correct) it's written by Akimoto Nami.
I have check in database and there is any.

**Forget it, i've found it. 😃

I'm re-watching the Saiunkoku Monogatari anime, and there is a lot of flower symbolism in this series. For instance, the emperor communicates with his loyal followers through flowers and flower-shaped objects. The adoptive parent of one of the characters gives him a flower-based name that has a special meaning. And there is a legend of a "Rose Princess" that features prominently.

Cardcaptor Sakura: Most of the characters have flower names whose meanings correspond with their personalities. The artists even go as far as using the background shoujo flowers to symbolize various characters. And there's a "Flower" card (for no reason anyone can fathom).

@Odette Yes, i like Saiunkoku Monogatari anime! purple for royal family color. Love Seiran! (i know his "-ran" stand for orchid). Thks Odette!
@akari_mizunashi i will never realized it if you don't tell me.. CLAMP surely made the meaning deeper than my expectation. flower names = personality. i admit i never paid attention with the background/details. Now if i reread CCS, i will read it carefully. Thks akari!

add more flower related manga Golden Lilac

Not sure if I'm understanding this correctly...but as long as there are flowers right?

Hanasaki SentimentalHmm..They both are waiting for spring so the sakura trees will bloom flowers. And I think somewhere in the end, the girl think the guy is like a sakura tree. Not too sure though.

I might've missed it, but someone hasn't recommended:Maria sama ga miteiru? There's lots of 'flower' especially roses in it. You may have read it already though. To me, the members of the respective rose group do resemble the rose color. Like Shimako Todo from the White rose group, is calm, gentle and quiet.
Barajou no Kiss the guys are the roses and they each have a respective color of rose.
