I received this digital ARC from NetGalley and publisher in exchange for unbiased review.
A wonderful directory of the most common heirloom flowers suitable for your modern garden. The illustrations provide a colorful display of the blossoms described.

Many of the plants may be familiar to the home gardener who may be unaware their amazing history. It’s fascinating how these plants have retained their original beauty and hardiness to have endured over 100 years. It’s no wonder that many have been useful in the advances of medical and culinary history. ( )
