As you may have noticed, I love flowers – a lot! My travels often revolve around flowers and my favorite photography subject is flowers. They bring so much joy and inspiration and are such amazing works of art by Mother Nature. The colors, shapes, textures of flowers are all so beautiful and amazing to me. So it may be no surprise that I also have lots of books about flowers!
The following is a list of amazing flower books that I think you’ll love, many of which I also have (see some of my pics below). These books are full of beautiful photos along with ideas and inspiration on growing and decorating with flowers.
