  • Awesome for watercolor artists!
This is the best reference guide for flowers! Clear pics! Highly recommend this book for everyone’s bookshelf. Just wish it came in a Hardbound edition and also a coffee table edition (we can hope!) Thanks Putnams!

  • Amazing book!
As a watercolor artist and gardener I will use this book endlessly. The photos are beautiful and I will also enjoy just thumbing through for a breath of springtime anytime. Lovely gift to myself!

  • Great Source for Identification and Selection of Florals and Greenery
A useful guide to reference during the design phase as preparation for ordering floral materials. Organized by color, it identifies over 400 flowers and greens to feature in arrangements. Quite helpful for those who have a particular color or shape in mind, but don't know the name of a plant which fits the bill. Should be a helpful addition to any floral enthusiast's library -- DIY or professional! ... show more

  • Great for color palette in coloring books.
Beautifully illustrated book. Perfect for reference photos and color palettes. I use it for my adult coloring books. Especially floral themed pages. Wish the photos were bigger.

  • A GREAT resource for painting!!
I’ve wanted this for a while to help provide inspiration for my watercolor floral painting. So glad I purchased! The photos are clean and crisp and so great for studying color and composition! I love that the flowers are ordered by color and in the back there are perforated miniature cards with each flower on them that can be removed. Not sure how I’ll use this yet but I love having the option to remove them as needed and maybe use for travel, etc. they also have all the info for each floral such as the name, color, and it’s use (spiller, filler, etc.). ... show more

  • Impressed with the composition of the photos in the book
I am impressed with the composition of the photos in the book. The photos are not only of high quality, but they are also beautifully composed, capturing the essence and unique characteristics of each flower. The book is organized by color, making it easy to navigate and find the type of flower you are looking for. Each photo is accompanied by the name of the flower, which is helpful for identifying different flowers that you may come across. ... show more
