Synopsis

Fresh Cut Flowers is an expert guide to selecting and caring for cut flowers. Each double page has an exquisite photograph, making the book a treasure for anyone who likes flowers. Most of us have had the occasion of spending a good deal of money at a florist shop only to be dismayed that the floral display was drooping or turning yellow after only a couple of days, when the money spent should merit it lasting at least a week. This book tells what kind of flowers to buy for each occasion, from weddings to intimate dinners, and it tells how to keep each looking perky for much longer. The second part of the book is a complete encyclopedia of flowers suitable for cutting, with beautiful photos of each and interesting details about the history and traditional use of each, as well as how to receive the most benefit from each occasion of use.
