BLOOMING FLOWERS: A Seasonal History of Plants and People
Exploring the first daffodils of spring and the last chrysanthemums of autumn, this is a work about seasons. In vibrant detail and drawing on a rich array of illustrations, Boddy considers how the sunflower, poppy, rose, lily--and many others--have given rise to meaning, value, and inspiration throughout history, and why they are integral to so many different cultures.
