Title On flowers [electronic resource eBook] : lessons from an accidental florist / Amy Merrick.


Summary Now, in her first book, she distills all that she's experienced, teaching readers to really see the natural beauty that is all around them-whether a bunch of brightly colored carnations from the corner bodega or a single lucky four-leaf clover-and how to use it to create simple arrangements that celebrate the unique qualities of whatever space, mood, and season they are in. Merrick begins with a primer on flower arranging, from selecting your blooms to creating pleasing proportions, before moving into the heart of the book-five eclectic chapters that follow her personal journey: City Things, Country Things, Fancy Things, Humble Things, and Faraway Things. Each chapter features dozens of beautiful blooms, reflections on topics ranging from the exquisite pleasure of heritage roses to museums well suited for flower lovers, and tips and tricks for creating your own stunning arrangements. It all adds up to an incredibly informative, deeply personal, visually lush treasure trove of a book.
