A Garden of Names: Exploring the World of Flowers

I’ve always loved flowers, having grown up surrounded by their beauty and charm. Inspired by this lifelong passion, I decided to create an A-to-Z flower glossary – and even added it to my bucket list! My goal is to see 20 different flowers for each letter of the alphabet. It’s a journey I find both exciting and deeply meaningful, and I hope you find it as interesting and entertaining as I do.
