Violets
Violets — modest, fragrant spring flowers — often touch joyous occasions and favour with someone superior, with a future husband met if a woman gathers them, but scorned love in withered ones. The dream may ask where a small, sweet grace is blooming for you, and whether the tender flower promises welcome favour or a love cast aside.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for violets, in their own words. They are period voices, not predictions, and they do not always agree with one another.
Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
To see violets in your dreams, or gather them, brings joyous occasions in which you will find favor with some superior person.
For a young woman to gather them, denotes that she will soon meet her future husband.
To see them dry, or withered, denotes that her love will be scorned and thrown aside.
