Content

Violet and Lottie have been friends for a long time. But when Hanna turns up, Lottie more and more often only plays with her. And Hanna does everything to make sure that she has Lottie all to herself! She even fakes a strawberry allergy but Violet sees through the charade. And she’s furious! Can flower magic save her friendship with Lottie? But what is the right plant this time? The Adios flower or the Bleeding Heart?

About the Series

For nine-year-old Violet, there is no better place than her Auntie Abigail's flower shop in a small British town. Both of them share a special gift: With the aid of a book of ancient flower recipes that only Violet and her aunt can read, they use flowers to heal and help people. Over the course of the series, Violet is being introduced to the secret flower magic. In each self-contained volume, she solves a major problem, though of course not without a few hiccups. Her friends, twins Jack (Jaqueline) and Zack, everyday life at school and cheeky animals play important roles as well.
