520 $aThis volume provides ideas, inspiration and know-how to dream up hundreds of floral arrangements. It includes a chapter devoted to decorative effects that may be achieved with dried plant material, silk, and even ceramic flowers. Instructive text accompanies lavish illustrations of floral displays, providing the reader with basic information on conditioning flowers, choosing containers, and descriptions of different styles of arrangement; still, tips and design suggestions appear secondary to the sheer visual pleasure the gorgeous images afford. Most practical of all is a concluding glossary with accessible information for the hands-on reader; listings include photographs, descriptions, plant culture, and specific instructions to ensure the long life of flowers.
