The Flower Book
Product ID: 80369892
A celebration of gorgeous flowers for your home and the ideal gift for those who love giving, receiving, and arranging flowers. Flower farmer and floral designer Rachel Siegfried celebrates, bloom by bloom, the loveliest flowers for the home, with beautiful close-up photography that reveals the flowers' intricate colours, shapes, and textures. She takes you through the seasons, from spring tulips to summer sweet peas and autumn dahlias, recommending how to select the best flowers, keep them fresh at home, and display each one to celebrate its natural beauty. Her vintage-style flower arrangements are inspired by her love of the English country garden and the hedgerows around her Oxfordshire flower farm. The Flower Book is a gift, as beautiful as a flower bouquet, but it will last forever. Embrace the beauty of locally grown flowers and be inspired by Rachel's natural, rustic designs.

Fantastic photos of cut flowers
Love this book! It has giant photographs that make even ordinary flowers look gorgeous. You can see right down the throat of some if the flowers, like the anemone. The author provides some historical background on each flower, and some instructions for preparing an arrangement. I have two complaints. One is that the photos needlessly transverse the book's gutter, sometimes by only an inch or two, thereby ruining the overall effect of the photo. Second, the photos are mostly back-to-back, as is the prose, so if you wanted to use the photos in something else, only half the book is useable. Overall, this is a gorgeous book.

Beautiful Floral Book
This book is an absolutely beautiful book. The colors of the flowers are breathtakingly gorgeous. The photography is so close up and detailed. I have never been disappointed with a DK book. There is always excellent photography and information. There is a floral arrangement of different themes of color and flowers. The flowers in the arrangement are shown individually with super-sized closeup pictures As an artist, this book is a great floral reference book. This book makes a great gift for a floral artist or someone interested in floral arrangements.
