A lavishly illustrated gift book for flower lovers reveals the historical symbolism of flowers and plants--such as the waterlily used to reject unwelcome suitors--and explains how to create a bouquet that conveys the correct feelings.
Organized alphabetically, this little book contains everything you ever wanted to know about flowers and then some. It's a handy reference guide if you ever want to send someone a subliminal message, and if not, it's just fun to read.
