Following the success of A Passion for Flowers, Carolyne Roehm's seasonal notebooks have established themselves as essential resource guides for gardening and entertaining. Each notebook features recipes and menus related to the specific season and to holidays within that season, as well as gardening tips - both practical and armchair. The books are also remarkable for their stunning design, with large, color photographs which embody the themes of beauty and grace. Now, in one specially designed slipcase, all four notebooks are available as a year-round source of pleasure and information.

Of all the Carolyne Roehm books, this set is my favorite. It had some practical gardening tips as well as the flower arrangements and recipes. If you are expecting a gardening "how to" book, this is not the one. However, the books are beautiful and I enjoyed each one. It gave me many ideas for my own home. I will never have a budget that allows me to purchase 12 dozen roses for one display, however, many of her ideas can be implemented on a smaller scale with less expensive florals. The color combinations were inspiring as well as the examples of matching floral displays to the surroundings. If you love flowers and beautiful table scapes, you will love this book.
