Flowers are restorative to the spirit and their beauty should be enjoyed every day, not limited to special occasions. That's the philosophy of popular florist Jane Durbridge, and with style writer Antonia Swinson, she shows how to do just that. With an emphasis on a striking use of form and color, rather than expensive blooms or time-consuming arrangements, Easy Flowers lives up to the title's promise. Photographs by Polly Wreford do beautiful justice to the stunning groupings and displays. Best of all there is practical advice on arranging and useful tips for caring and prolonging the life of fresh flowers. The first section, Flower Basics, explains how to select and care for your fresh flowers. Next, comprehensive sections for each of the Color Themes shows beautifully simple arrangement ideas for every room in the home, grouped by flower color. Finally, practical care and maintenance advice will ensure your arrangements look their best for as long as possible.
