A lush celebration of nature’s most beautiful work, the flower

A compendium of floral wonder from botanical artist Adriana Picker, Petal reveals the colours, details and unique sculptural beauty of nature’s most remarkable creations. Now in a special edition with a beautiful new cover.

Adriana Picker has curated specimens from all over the world to celebrate through her stunning illustrations, accompanied by writer Nina Rousseau's words on the folklore, fame and meaning of both favourite blooms and herbaceous curiosities.

Petal features over two hundred flowers from twenty-seven plant families – from elegant roses to otherworldly orchids and magnificent magnolias – as well as a dedicated chapter for unusual specimens.

Adriana Picker is an Australian-born illustrator who currently resides in Sydney, Australia. At the heart of her work is a lifelong passion for flowers, which she manages to find wherever she goes. As an illustrator, artist and designer, her work encompasses the diverse fields of publishing, fine arts, film and advertising. Petal is Adriana’s fourth book; she has previously illustrated The Cocktail Garden, Where the Wildflowers Grow and The Garden of Earthly Delights.
