by Ruth Soffer (Author)
This coloring book has something for garden lovers of all ages--from a spring bulb garden bursting with tulips and daffodils to summer flower beds filled with brilliantly colored blossoms that attract butterflies. Just add a touch of color and bring to life more than twenty different garden settings, including those featuring lovely roses and climbing florals, as well as plots of ground set aside for cacti and edible flowers.
Nature artist Ruth Soffer has accurately rendered full-page, realistic images of familiar flowers, birds, and butterflies to celebrate the beauty that lies just beyond the doorstep. A caption under each illustration describes the garden shown and cites the common and scientific names of plants displayed.
