Global adventurer Robbie Honey spends much of his time searching
out and deconstructing some of the world’s most exotic flowers.
This book features more than 90 specimens collected from as far
afield as the Malaysian rainforest, the African veldt, and an
English churchyard. No plant is beyond reach. Each specimen is
meticulously laid out and photographed using an iPhone, as soon as
it is picked, to create miniature plant portraits. Robbie’s fresh
approach gives traditional botany a contemporary edge. Arranged by
colour – red, orange, yellow, blue, purple, pink, then white –
the plants are highly accessible as well as beautiful to look at.
Botany, at last, has been transformed for a modern audience. Robbie
was born and brought up in Harare, Zimbabwe and studied
horticulture, interior design and photography in England, Holland,
Kenya, South Africa and Zimbabwe. He trained in event floristry in
London, under Ming Veevers Carter, and started his own company
counting Hermes, Dior, Valentino and Vivienne Westwood amongst his
many clients. Robbie lectures and holds masterclasses in floristry
at the flower schools in London, Beijing, Seoul, New York and
Virginia, USA. He has amassed a huge international following on
social media.
