All questions about complex plant processes can be found in the Botany for Gardeners.

As before, Botany for Gardeners shares accessible information about how plants are organized, how they have adapted to nearly all environments on earth, their essential functions, and how they reproduce.

“This should be the cornerstone of every gardener’s library.” —Jeff Gillman, Director of the UNC Charlo
About Our Flowers

Every FLWR arrangement is individually designed with the best flowers available that day. We handpick unusual varieties, seasonal favorites and exceptional stems for their color, form and movement rather than working from fixed recipes. Your arrangement will reflect the palette and feeling pictured here, while the flowers themselves will be particular to the season and the moment.

SIzing

Our arrangements are generously sized and designed for consistency at every price point. Our $100 arrangement is perfectly suited as a centerpiece for a four-person dining table. As you move up in size, expect a noticeably larger, fuller arrangement with more flowers and greater impact

Care

A little care goes a long way. Keep the vase topped up with fresh water, and change the water every couple days whenever possible. Keep your flowers away from direct sunlight, heating and air-conditioning vents, and other sources of extreme heat or cold. Remove individual blooms as they fade and enjoy watching your arrangement change as it ages.
