100 Edible & Healing Flowers

Margaret Roberts is a well-known proponent of the

use of natural products to enhance health and wellbeing.

In 100 Edible & Healing Flowers, she encourages readers to

create a garden of flowers that can be used in celebrations,

in the kitchen, and also to produce medicines and cosmetics.

In this hands-on, practical book, Margaret instructs how

and when to plant, grow and harvest flowers, and supplies

recipes that harness the medicinal, cosmetic and edible

nature of these plants. The accessible, down-to-earth

text is spiced with personal anecdotes and information

about the historical use of flowers in herbalism. Colourful

photographs aid identification, and Margaret’s delicate

line drawings add an appealing touch of whimsy to this

elegant book.

An indispensable guide for anyone interested in health,

wellness, organic gardening and using flowers to enhance

their cooking and health.
