| book description |
This special edition boxset brings together a unique collection of the bestselling Beautiful Varieties books, which each celebrate a single flower type and all its wonderful varieties. The set includes four covetable hardbacks: Lilacs, Ranunculus, Peonies and Tulips. Packed with tips for growing and cutting the flowers, each book features lyrical prose about the blooms and gorgeous, detailed photography, making this boxset a must for any gardener, whatever their level. Lilacs by Naomi Slade, with photography by Georgianna Lane, reveals an exquisite array of lilac cultivars in delicate shades of purple, pink and mauve but also striking whites, blues and yellows. Whether wild or in the garden, lilacs’ scented flowers are reminiscent of early summer, and their whorls of fragrant blossom provoke a sense of nostalgia and romance. Ranunculus by Naomi Slade, with photography by Georgianna Lane, showcases a heady and colourful profusion of Persian buttercups. Pert as a rosebud and blousy as a dahlia, Ranunculus asiaticus is the flower of the moment, and its fashionable double blooms and abundant layers of tissue-paper petals never fail to captivate. Peonies by Jane Eastoe, with photography by Georgianna Lane, celebrates the enduring majesty and versatility of the peony flower, with varieties ranging from the most fragrant and visually dramatic through to the utterly romantic. With their classic beauty and bountiful ruffles, peonies are an ever-popular choice for growing, cutting and displaying. Tulips by Jane Eastoe, with photography by Rachel Warne, opens up the enchanting world of the fabulous tulip. Alongside no-fuss gardening tips you’ll discover a stunning range of specimens, from the most theatrical frills to the sleekest of petals, and from the subtlest of pink flushes to the most vivid red and yellow stripes. Every book in the collection is overflowing with sumptuous flower photography, guaranteed to keep you enthralled as you enjoy the process of browsing and selecting your beautiful new blooms.
