Flower Cushions
People have used flowers to express their feelings, enhance their surroundings, and to commemorate important rituals and observances. All forms of art depict the use of flowers: music, books, paintings, sculpture, ceramics, tapestries, etc. Some of the most opulent examples of source material are the flower pictures, produced by artists during the 17th, 18th and 19th centuries, which so accurately depict flowers in their incredible beauty. We have a lovely selecton of flower cushions for every keen horticulturist including Rose Flower Cushions, Iris Flower Cushions, Tulip Flower Cushions, Orchid Flower Cushions and Camellia Flower Cushions.

General Information On Flowers
Scientists assert that there are over 270,000 species of flowers that have been documented and are existing in the 21st Century. The evolutionary history of flowers extends across some 125 years. During this time, an intricate assortment of more than 125,000 flower species has developed.
During the Victorian era, in England the language of flowers was as important to people as being "well dressed." For example, the recognizable scent of a particular flower, plant or perhaps a scented handkerchief sent its own unique message. But scientists have yet to answer basic questions about these marvels of beauty... What led to their amazing diversity? Are there flowers that have not changed much during the evolution of this planet?
Fossils of woody magnolia-like plants dating back 93 million years are the first evidence of plant life. More recently, tiny herb-like flower fossils dating back 120 million years have been uncovered by Pale botanists.
Flowering plants, called angiosperms, were believed to be already diverse and found in most locations by the middle of the Cretaceous Period about 146 million years ago. A myriad of images of preserved flowers and flower parts have been found in fossils from Sweden, Portugal, England, and along the Eastern and Gulf coasts of the United States. Below are a few flowers which have a long history.
