Flowers Calendar 2006 [Illustrated] [Calendar]

Workman Publishing (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: August 15, 2005

Every month, a beautiful bouquet of the kinds of flowers that make flower lovers swoon. Flowers picked right from the garden or offered up in zinc buckets at a farmer’s market. Not the unnaturally blemish-free blossoms straight from the florist’s refrigerated case, but soft, luminous blooms whose very imperfections—a petal curled with age, a stem bowed—are the very secret to their appeal.

The Flowers Calendar features a year of refreshingly uncomposed compositions photographed at their most appealing. Displayed in a pail, pitcher, or other container at hand, each is garden-fresh and exquisitely beautiful. And the roses—close your eyes, and you can almost smell them!

I am sure this is a nice calendar in it's own right, however, the disappointing factor is that the calendar did not ship with other items ordered back in December 2005. Cancelled that item and went to a "hallmark-type" store and bought a fairly priced calendar instead.
