You provided flowers for my wedding a few weeks ago and I just had to get in touch to say how much I absolutely LOVED them!

From the powerful medicinal elements of the Manuka bush flowers to the exact spot in the Lake District that inspired Wordsworth's 'host of golden daffodils'. Observed on March 21st, National Flower Day celebrated the first official day of spring, and guess what?

Every day a flower blooms somewhere in the world and this collection of 366 flowers reveals more than just their beauty, but also the fascinating botanical, literary, folkloric and historical stories behind them. A small bouquet of sunflowers can make a lovely hostess gift, while a larger arrangement can be a stunning centrepiece for a dinner party or special event. Weddings are another popular occasion for flowers, and there are many different types of wedding bouquets to choose from. Likewise, the placing of flowers on particular days is sometimes a surprise – agapanthus, which we think of as a summer flower, appears for January 15, which is the time of year it flowers in its native South Africa.

Some 365 stunning photographs and works of art offers the most beautiful collection of flora images in one place. Whether you're looking for a traditional rose bouquet or something more unique, like wildflowers or succulents, there are plenty of options to suit any style or theme. A few weeks back, we sent a newsletter containing a Spotify playlist of some songs that inspired our bestselling bouquets. Find a real understanding of nature's most beautiful expression with A Flower A Day - packed with fascinating science and stories and richly illustrated throughout with photographs and art.

This, at first glance, is an observation of flowers – but its more than that – this book talks about their meanings, their history, their names, where they can be found.
