This book tells the exciting story of how Swedish Prince Eugen took a lively interest in flowers and plants, and presents his original flowerpot design, which has now been in production for nearly a century. From the florist working at Waldemarsudde as a cicerone, we discover how flowers played a vital role in the Prince s life at Waldemarsudde, and how important they still are today at this beautiful artist home in Stockholm. The florist also presents inspiring tips on how to arrange flowers in the famous pots, as table decorations and in the garden.
