Say it with flowers.
This elegant volume features a visual glossary of popular flower types and their Victorian meanings, followed by simple step-by-step instructions for twenty-five beautiful arrangements. Combine laurel (“success”) and sage (meaning “virtue”) to wish a friend success in a new endeavor, or Carolina jasmine (“separation”) with zinnia (“thoughts of you”) to say a simple “I Miss You”. From Celebration to Luck, Happiness and Forgiveness, each of the bespoke bouquets suits an important occassion or recipient. Blooming with photographs and watercolor botanical illustrations, Meaningful Bouquets bring a truly personal touch to flower arranging.
