“ This breathtaking and evocative book of photographs reveals the fragile elegance of pressed, dried flowers.”

Holiday 1999
Rizzoli Bookstores

“ It was December, but the glowing color of the pressed flower recaptured for an instant the September day…”

“ Blooms live on, flattened but glorious.”

“… "The Afterlife of Flowers" celebrates fragile beauty of pressed flowers, giving the reader a new perspective on sometimes common garden blooms.”

“ The Afterlife of Flowers" will delight gardeners, nature lovers, artists —and just anyone who has ever wished they could hold on to the simple yet complex beauty of flowers.”

“ ...some books are meant to be savored, turning but a few pages at a time to fully absorb the text and images of the stark white pages. The "Afterlife of Flowers" by Wynnewood’s Janie Feldman Gross is such a volume.”
