'This teaching unit on flowers is designed to introduce students to the special role that flowers and gardens have had in our culture and the powerful influence that flowers have exerted over our lives. In an essay entitled "The Garden as Metaphor," C. C. Marcus observes that "gardens are mirrors of ourselves, reflections of sensual and personal experience. By making gardens, using or admiring them, and dreaming of them, we create our own idealized order of nature and culture. Gardens connect us to our collective and primeval pasts."' -- Introduction
