Reviews
The compilation made of nearly 200 flowers extremely thorough and required a lot of research, very demanding and elegant work. I recommend it to everyone who loves flowers and wants to learn more about them. - Tom MIko (VIne Voice) - 5 Stars This book is gorgeous and a must-have just for the artwork itself. Then to have the added information of the meaning behind each flower is such a fun knowledge to have and share with others. - sa4567 - 5 Stars A beautifully-crafted work with realistic paintings of flowers, accompanied by descriptions of the same. I loved the haikus as well, which added an additional layer of depth to everything. This book is perfect for anyone interested in flowers and herbs in general. - iRayne - 5 Stars The book provides beautiful flower illustrations on each page. The Secret Wisdom of Flowers is an enchanting read. The book mentions that Hana Kotoba refers to sincerity, a feeling that resonated deeply. I felt relaxed, authentic and inspired while looking at this beautiful book and reading the messages for each flower. I will indeed show this beautiful book to my wife and family! - Noah William Smith - 5 Stars
