The AIFD Guide to Floral Design is the most current and comprehensive publication to date dedicated to providing value and signifiance for those who care about flowers and design. There are many publications with good information, this book has it all under one cover. I use it all of the time to learn, reinforce and reminde.Experts in Floraculture were enlisted representing numerous recognized educational resources, after much research and discussion ,writing and rewriting the book was completed and published.
JK Rollins was signing her books when a young woman brought a very worn book for er to sign. She asked the woman if it was her book.She answered it was not, it is her sons, but he did not want to bring it because pages were worn and torn, the cover was half there. MS. Rollins asker her to go hme and bring her son back with her, which she did. The son appeared in front of his favorite author with his head down, expecting to be told the proper care of a book. Instead she surprised him and the audience by telling him that this is what books need to look like. They need to be read and re read, cherushed and loved as a good friend, not sat on a shelf pristine I share this story because this is what my AIFD Guide to Floral Design looks like, loved and used.I even make notes and write in it, underline and star information
