Originally published by Idea Books, © 2017 IdeArte srl, Viareggio

Morocco in bloom is a celebration of the beauty and richness of Moroccan flora. The famous Jardin Majorelle in Marrakech features extensively, its rich palette of dazzling flowers and deep Marjorelle Blue illustrated with a magnificent array of photographs. Created by French painter Jacques Majorelle in the first half of the twentieth century, the garden was rediscovered and restored by Yves Saint-Laurent and Pierre Bergé in the 1980s. Morocco in bloom, with its detailed antique botanical prints, also serves as a practical guide on the cultivation, creation and maintenance of southern Mediterranean gardens, leading the reader through the year with advice on how to plant, prune and care for the most beautiful and rare flora
