Sarah Carter Edgarton, author of several publications on the subject of flowers, applied her expertise to the 19th-century popularity of fortune-telling books by pairing flowers with quotations from popular verse to create this charming fortune-telling game.
"The Floral Fortune-Teller" uses the colors of flowers to define the themes of the reader's future life, and supplies answers in the form of quotations from writers such as Shakespeare, Goethe, Wordsworth and Spenser.

About the Author
Edgarton, Sarah C.: - Miss Sarah C. Edgarton, who in 1846 became the wife of the Rev. A. D. Mayo, minister of the Universalist Church in Gloucester, Massachusetts, was born in Shirley, in that state, in 1819. When about seventeen years of age she began to write for the literary and religious journals, and in 1838 she edited the first volume of The Rose of Sharon, an annual, of which nine other volumes were afterward issued under her direction. She also edited for several years The Ladies' Repository, a monthly magazine of religion and letters, published in Boston. Besides her numerous contributions to The New Yorker, The New World, The Tribune, The Knickerbocker, and other periodicals, she published, in the ten years from 1838 to 1848, The Palfreys, Ellen Clifford; or the Genius of Reform, The Poetry of Woman, Spring Flowers, Memoir and Poems of Mrs. Julia H. Scott, The Flower Vase, Fables of Flora, and The Floral Fortune-Teller. These are small volumes, and two or three of them consist in part of extracts; but they are all illustrative of a delicate apprehension of beauty and truth. She died on July 9, 1848. -Rufus Wilmot Griswold, The Female Poets of America, 1849.
