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.

Tulips [Bok / Inbunden]

<p>Women have always gardened, but our stories have been buried with our work. Alice Vincent is on a quest to change that. To understand what encourages women to go out, work the soil, plant seeds and nurture them, even when so many other responsibilities sit upon their shoulders. To recover the histories that have been lost among the soil.<br/><br/><i>Why Women Grow</i> is a much-needed exploration of why women turn to the earth, as gardeners, growers and custodians. This book emerged from a deeply rooted desire to share the stories of women who are silenced and overlooked. In doing so, Alice fosters connections with gardeners that unfurl into a tender exploration of women's lives, their gardens and what the ground has offered them, with conversations spanning creation and loss, celebration and grief, power, protest, identity and renaissance.<br/><br/>Wise, curious and sensitive, <i>Why Women Grow</i> follows Alice in her search for answers, with inquisitive fronds reaching and curling around the intimate anecdotes of others.</p>
