Floret Farm’s Cut Flower Garden: Grow, Harvest, and Arrange Stunning Seasonal Blooms

When I first picked up flower farmer Erin Benzakein's gorgeous gardening book when it was published in 2017, I approached it like a coffee table book: I enjoyed poring over the lush photos but had no intention of taking any practical action as a result of my reading. I did draw a little bit of floral arranging inspiration but the bouquets in this book are way more elaborate than I wish to put together for my kitchen counter. But this year I've found myself drawn to flower gardening in a way I didn't see coming, and have been turning to these pages for inspiration and guidance. I'm enjoying the process, and noticing how good and soothing it feels to peruse these pages with my own backyard in mind.
