The Flower Fairies Herbal takes readers on a journey through meadows, woodlands, and waysides to discover the plants and flowers brought to life by Cicely Mary Barker's timeless illustrations.

Each creation is accompanied by the original flower fairies illustrations, blending nostalgia with practical, nature-based knowledge.

The book includes:

  • 50 inspiring recipes rooted in the flowers and plants depicted in Barker's fairy illustrations
