eBotanical Prints – June 2018
/June was a light month for botanical print books – only 10 in the entire month. Even so – I was surprised at how many favorite flowers were included in these books. There were the seasonal ones for June in our area: water lilies and lotuses (like at Kenilworth), and day lilies. The blooms are at their peak in July but the buds are huge in June!
And then there were the jack-in-the-pulpit and tulip poplar flowers that are done by June…are April and May flowers here.
Enjoy the June Botanical print slide show. After the show is a list of the books with links to their locations and a sample image from each (which also was seen in the slide show). At the bottom of the slide show is a list of the most recent blog posts about individual botanical print books; I haven’t done many recently but intent to start writing again and providing more details about individual books.
