This is a pretty good book for explaining both the basic and intricate pieces of growing/using herbs. It's written in an easy to understand way and I enjoyed the addition of recipes for syrups and butters. I will definitely be using the herb butter recipe in my cooking from now on. I can't wait to try it on a warm, crusty baguette!

This book discusses growing one's own herbs. It discusses not only how to grow them but also how to use them fresh or to preserve them for later use. The illustrations are lovely. Some aspects of the narrative may be more detailed than the average lay person wants, but those with strong interest in herbal gardening will find it useful. I received an electronic review copy through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

I love the idea of this book. There are recipes using all different kinds of edible (obviously) flowers - it's not just for tisanes anymore. I intend to use the recipes and suggestions for the springtime. I just wish there were more tips on sourcing edible flowers, as I've searched high and low and it's not easy. Would recommend for anyone channeling their inner fairy.
