4.0 out of 5 stars A great book for any wannabe florists out there..., 7 Jan 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: The Beginner's Guide to Floristry (Hardcover)
I was really pleased with this book, I am currently doing a beginners floristry course at college and I know that this book will become my "bible".

It has information on how to care for cut flowers and make them last longer, info on all the tools you need, and the basics in funeral flowers, wedding flowers as well as other chapters on seasonal arrangements etc. I highly recommend this book. The pictures were also of a very high standard.
