About the Author

Malcolm Hillier has always had a passion for flowers and gardens. In 1970, he started a garden design practice with Colin Hilton and during the years that followed, created a large maze with a scented water garden at its heart; lake and woodland gardens; as well as town gardens, roof terraces, and conservatories. Containers have always played a large part in these projects. All his planting schemes have a special style that marries a romantic profusion of flowers and fragrance with a strong sense of structure and formality.

This same mixture infuses his decorations of fresh and dried flowers, produced for many well-known clients, including film and television companies, in Europe, the West Indies, and the United States. His best-selling The Book of Dried Flowers, coauthored with Colin Hilton, Decorating with Dried Flowers, and The Book of Fresh Flowers are further testament to his great talent in this field.

Before devoting his energy solely to plants and flowers, Malcolm Hillier studied music at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama in London, and he then followed a career as a copywriter, ultimately becoming Head of Television in a leading advertising agency.
