Welcome, lulu--neat name. :-) I for one have no knowledge of decorating horses' noses with flowers; but any such would have to be fastened to the bridle, for obvious reasons.
That's pretty cool, Dr. Bill, that flowers can communicate whole messages--and replies--without spoken or written words. I wonder if anything else has ever "developed" that far. I know that ribbons and armbands, for ex., can signify things: certain alliances, support, mourning. And I think, in former days, that feathers in hats could also transmit some form of message, but as far as I know none of these things "gave" replies.
