"Bouquets with Personality" Lecture with Lucinda Rooney

Thursday, December 3, 2009; 7:00 pm
Recognizing flowers' differing personalities—and blending the meek and the bold together in unusual, romantic and harmonious ways—is at the heart of Lucinda Rooney's floral philosophy.

She possesses an in-depth understanding of how flowers and plants convey emotion that makes her an inspiration resource for beginning flower-arrangers, seasoned professionals, and anyone who just loves flowers.

A book signing will follow the lecture. Seating is limited to the first 150 guests. Reserve your spot by calling 610-388-1000 #100.
