Alethea Harampolis og Jill Rizzo The Flower Recipe Book (3, 2013) | Alethea Harampolis,Jill Rizzo

There is simply no other book out there that demonstrates - both visually and with detailed recipes - how to create the type of floral arrangement that is ubiquitous in design publications these days. And no other book offers so many styles of arrangements: novices can learn how to work with a single variety of flower to great effect, while the more adventurous can create a vase overflowing with layered blooms. On top of the 125 flower recipes, the book is packed with takeaway, such as ideas for unexpected vessels and techniques that can be employed to elevate any arrangement. The introduction and appendix alone are valuable resources, taking readers through the basics of flower arranging - from what to look for when selecting flowers to local and seasonal buying considerations.
