Tulips: A Little Book of Flowers

This fascinating celebration of the tulip reads like a “very smart love letter to cultivating beauty” and features 40+ vintage-inspired full-color botanical illustrations (Seattle Times).

After a drab winter, tulips triumphantly emerge from the spring garden, a colorful symbol of rebirth. These humble bulbs have been celebrated, stolen, carried across oceans; at times they have been considered as precious as rubies. Happily for us, these days they are affordable luxuries—and easy to grow as well. 

This charming little hardcover book includes:
  • 40+ full-color botanical illustrations
  • basic botany and history
  • everything you need to know to grow gorgeous blooms in the garden
  • tips for creating beautiful arrangements
  • quotes, lore, and notable gardens and growers
