Everlastings by Bex Partridge
As Heard on The Daily Gardener Podcast:
This book came out in 2020, and the subtitle is How to Grow, Harvest, and Create with Dried Flowers.
In this book, we learn so much about dried flowers from the floral artist Bex Partridge, the owner of Botanical Tales. A specialist in working with dried flowers—known as everlasting flowers—Bex inspires us to grow, harvest, and create with dried flowers.
Bex shares her wisdom from working with everlastings and tips for incorporating dried flowers into garden planning and home decor.
Bex loves dried flowers, and she fervently believes that something magical happens to them when they're dried. Although drying may slightly dull their vibrancy, Bex feels that, ultimately, drying magnifies the bloom’s beauty.
One tip I learned from Bex is to target plants with woody stems because those plants tend to dry beautifully.
This book is 160 pages of Everlastings - preserved flowers, preserved memories, and magnified ethereal beauty that is everlasting.
