Fill your life with flowers. 

Featuring 24 practical projects using locally grown flowers and seasonal mechanics, Life in Bloom is packed with over 250 never before seen images.

In Life in Bloom, I teach you everything you need to know about growing and arranging flowers at home – including which rules to follow, and which ones to break – in a bid to find your own style. 

Inviting you into my studio and garden, I you through the seasons by way of my favourite flowers. Discover narcissi and ranunculus in spring; peonies and poppies in summer; dahlias and phlox in autumn; and dried honesty and forced blossom in winter. For each flower, I give advice on growing, choosing varieties, sourcing and conditioning before teaching stunning arrangements. Play with colour, form and texture, and gain the confidence to go bigger. 

By the end of this book, you'll know how to design with bowls and mossages, create bouquets and make stunning designs in all sorts of vessels, and you'll pick up a bounty of tips to push your style to the next level. By using beautiful flower varieties, simple techniques and encouraging creativity and flair, I’ll show that it’s possible to create dramatic arrangements every day – bringing style and joy to your tablescapes, special occasions and interiors.
