  Written by the author of Flower Arranging and Flower Festivals in Church , this book shows how to plan a garden specifically for flower arranging, to ensure that there is material suitable for cutting all year round. Every flower and plant recommended in the book has been tested by the author and has proved itself suitable for arranging, with reasonable lasting powers. Includes instructions on habitat, particularly soil requirements, and conditioning once the flower has been picked. Useful tables list plants which will be available at specific times of year, classified according to colour, and there is a chapter on drying plants and plenty of advice on suitable containers.
