I have fond memories of going to Jocylin's flower farm with Bonnie Savage, Jane Wilson, and Mat Pember to document some plants for this title.

It felt like I was on the set of a Wes Anderson film, and it shows in the design of the book. Every element just came together perfectly, and I'm still incredibly proud of how it turned out. The cover, in particular, takes me back to those I SPY books I used to love as a kid. Do you remember those? I still love them. Thanks to Bonnie for working so hard to get that shot.

All in all, this project was a total pleasure to work on - from the magical farm to the beautiful design, it was just one of those concepts that designed itself.
