The history of flower arranging Wednesday 28 November 2001
The third in the series tracing the history of flower arranging. Many of the plants we now take for granted first found their way to Britain in the nineteenth century.

The Victorians were well known for their love of flowers and passionate about new discoveries.
Seen as a sign of wealth and their gardeners' expertise, those that could afford to, would display their blooms in their houses with typical Victorian exuberance.
Corinne Julius met Dai Evans of the National Trust, and Mary Rose Blacker, author of Flora Domestica.
Mary Rose Blacker is author of Flora Domestica - A History of British Flower Arranging 1500 - 1930 (Harry N Abrams, ISBN: 0810967030).
