Garden Bouquets and Beyond
Just as family heirlooms and lovingly assembled collections personalize your home, working with the flowers from your own garden adds another one-of-a-kind touch. With Suzy Bales’ designs for using blooms and foliage from all four seasons and her expert tips on prolonging their lives, you’ll be surrounded by fresh flowers every day of the year. Gorgeous photos throughout Garden Bouquets and Beyond illustrate how a handful of pretty posies can be arranged just so into dozens of enchanting bouquets, garlands, mock topiaries, candle cups and toppings for gifts. Bring a profusion of color inside with everything from Sweet William and roses in a wooden bucket to a woodland wreath complete with mushrooms and lichen. Color photos.

I have only got into it a little, but I can tell it is one of the best garden book I have ever seen. This is going to be a great winter read so I am ready for spring!

Fabulous Book!

This beautiful book is incredible. It is full of photographs & how-to advice on arranging flowers and plants from your own garden, and also on growing them yourself. Ms. Bales must have green hands & unbounded imagination & creativity for making arrangements, big or small, elaborate or simple. This immediately became one of my favorite books for guidance on use of the garden's bounty. If you only have space for one book on flower arranging and gardening, this is the best! The author will guide you to make successful choices for sharing gifts of homegrown plants & flowers, & other beautiful items, showing you how to use what you have at hand to express joy & pleasure. New plants are appearing every day in my own yard, and Ms. Bales has prepared a book to bring me new excitement & challenges to use these flowers & plants. This book will bring happiness to beginning gardeners and & old pros alike.
