Shows us, through abundant and lush photography, how beauty is all around us in the world. With 12 chapters, each dedicated to a month in the year, the book guides readers in how to use local flowers, branches, and plants found in nature--or just our backyards--to create spectacular and unusual arrangements, both big and small. In addition to hundreds of process photos, finished arrangements, details, and landscapes, there are tips on arranging, information about the plants, and thoughts on our connection to the natural world. --Publisher's description.

Pretty pictures, not much content submitted by mowjac on August 16, 2018, 1:22pm The photography is lovely, though sometimes the subject mystified me. I was hoping to learn about foraging--this is not that book. It's more a personal account with California flora and doesn't translate as well to other climates.
