Cultivate and colour a tiny space.
Creating colour and interest in a small urban garden by growing a range of flowers and other decorative plants brings with it many rewards. Urban Flowers by Carolyn Dunster shows you what to grow and how to use your own blooms, leaves, and berries in a range of indoor displays and hand-tied bouquets.
Locally-grown flowers in season is a significant and welcome trend in floristry. Just as eating a tasteless strawberry in December pricks our consciences, so too does purchasing a bouquet of tulips in September, however stunning they may be to look at. The most local, seasonal flowers, which are the most satisfying to give and to display, are the ones you have grown yourself. Carolyn Dunster shows you how to do this in the smallest of spaces.
