About
Welcome from Su & Brett at Jago Publishing
It's the start of the new term, so a big hello to all new and returning floristry students and tutors and to all florists everywhere!
From our website you can buy our latest Edition 5 (published Sept 2025) of our best selling 'Cut Flowers A practical guide to their selection and care; which has been fully revised and expanded with new flowers added. For the first time it also contains locally grown availability, so if you want to source flowers from either a flower farm or an artisan grower, you can check what flowers are available and when.
You can also buy its companion book, 'Cut Foliage A practical guide to its selection and care' 2nd Edition and, to make up the set, 'Houseplants A practical guide to their selection and care' (2019)
All books have been written by myself, Su Whale, a florist and freelance writer with over 30 years experience in the floristry industry. You can buy a single book, a set of two or the complete trilogy from our website, just click on 'Buy our Books' and scroll down to select your choice. There is a discount if you buy sets, and all books are signed by me.
Every book is carefully packaged and dispatched by ourselves. Books can be bought from our website via our secure payment World Pay site, or we are happy to take credit/debit cards over the phone (we are fully PCI DSS compliant)
Colleges and flower schools who buy our books include Kay's Flower School, Dublin, The Academy of Floristry, East Durham, Moreton Morrell & Writtle Colleges and other floristry colleges across the UK. Overseas we ship to The Boerma Instituut in Alsmeer, Solomon Bloemen Flower School, Hong Kong, and City College San Francisco. We also supply Waterstones, WH Smiths and Foyles via Gardners Books wholesalers.
Any queries, please don't hesitate to get in touch.
Looking forward to hearing from you!
