Synopsis

Katherine Whiteside conveys a plant's charms; by doing so she encourages us to know and then grow the best of the old garden flowers...I can confidently recommend this book. A perfect marriage of illuminating text and handsome photographs, celebrating the flowers that our great-grandparents knew and loved and those that we will surely wish to hand down to our grandchildren. Antique Flowers combines the whimisical with the factual, history with practical thought and useful information. At last a gardening book not just for gardeners but for all who love flowers..a vintage bouquet.
