Praise for The Flower Workshop

Praise for Ariella Chezar:

  • "Ariella has developed a new vocabulary of floral design, one based almost entirely on the natural gesture of a plant and the way it grows in the garden. She's inspired me (and a whole school of floral design) to avoid rigid perfection, and to rely more on cultivating an artist's intimate eye on the world of flowers." --Steven Orr, former editorial director of gardening, Martha Stewart Living
