Floral Style guides you through the plants in your garden, in the local florist shop or farmer's market, and even in mailorder catalogues, providing invaluable advice on conditioning each selection to maintain long-lasting beauty and freshness. Recognizing that choosing an appropriate container to display your cut flowers and greenery is a vital part of the creative process, Floral Style presents a diverse array of possibilities ranging from a variety of vases, bowls, and baskets, to such unusual items as an unused birdcage or an old slipper (properly prepared to hold water, of course).An illustrated glossary of favorite flowers features capsule information on the size, color, conditioning, vase-life, and gardening care of each entry.
