Garden People: Bex Partridge, floral artist and author - Botanical Tales

My guest today is Bex Partridge, the floral artist and gardener Botanical Tales based in Devon, England. Bex creates sustainable designs, displays and installations using dried flowers, also known as everlastings.  Her work celebrates nature and the shifts of the seasons, drawing attention to flowers in each stage of their existence.  Her ethereal displays and designs create a sense of wonder in the observer, and bespeak certain magic.  Learning from her – whether through her workshops, books, or Patreon community – will change the way you see the garden.  Her most recent book, Flowers Forever, is available this month in the UK, and at the end of June in the USA. Please see the links below for order'/preorder information.
