Description
From the humble daisy to the exotic bird of paradise, this book invites the reader on a tour around the world's glorious flora. Horticultural writer Miranda Janatka reveals the fascinating life of flowers through science, folklore, history and art - every day of the year.

Each story is illustrated with either a beautiful photograph or work of art making this an irresistible compendium for any flower enthusiast.
