This profusely illustrated archive of more than 200 flowers, plants, and trees was compiled by Ernst and Johanna Lehner -- two of the world's foremost collectors of pictorial symbols (who also happen to be devoted flower enthusiasts). Their comprehensive collection, with illustrations selected from rare sources, extends from the image of a pomegranate, the Chinese symbol of fertility, to a basket of flowers in a nineteenth-century Valentine silhouette. A profusion of bouquets, wreaths, flowers of the months, and other floral designs are also included.In examining the symbolism of flora, the authors consider the religious, magical, and legendary significance of plants such as the mandrake, used as an opiate and love potion; the lotus, revered by the Egyptians and the Mayas of Central America; the mistletoe, a plant believed by the ancients to be capable of raising people from the dead; as well as the Bo tree, sunflower, dragon tree, ice plant, and many other botanical specimens. The development of horticultural images in heraldic devices, emblems, and symbols is also discussed, and a concluding section displays a table summarizing the symbolic meanings of every known species of flora -- from absinthe to zinnia.
A visual treat for flower lovers, this volume of royalty-free illustrations is an essential sourcebook for artists and designers. Of value to botanical experts and gardening specialists, it will also appeal to folklore enthusiasts.

BIG box of spoons
This is one big box of white plastic spoons. Probably more than you need for home use. I’ll probably end up donating most of these to my kid’s school for the teachers lounge. The spoons are not packaged in smaller boxes or bags inside. The quality is pretty good for “everyday” spoons. Compared to the spoons I get at my local grocery store which feel more like premium plastic ware, these are smaller and made of a softer plastic. I wouldn’t call them flimsy, but they are definitely not as sturdy as the other spoons. As far as value goes, I don’t think you can find a better deal for bulk plastic spoons (currently about $30 for 1000)

Huge box of spoons that actually hold up!
My patience started wearing thin as a result of having to always keep buying spoons due to all the cereal and yogurt that the volunteers have each morning. Finally, I decided to buy these gigantic boxes just to be over with it once and for all. These spoons are surprisingly durable given the extremely low price and the fact that they are just disposable plastic utensils. I tried using one on some dense frozen ice cream yesterday evening, and the handle did not even flex at all, let alone break.
This product comes packaged in a fairly frail cardboard box which makes it occupy quite a bit of floor space in the pantry. Nevertheless, I find it completely worthwhile.

Great Bulk Pack of Disposable Spoons
These is a nice bulk pack of disposable spoons, and at a great price value. They are light weight, sturdy, BPA free spoons that conveint and safe to use everyday. My daughter is finishes her 9th grade school year in a couple of weeks, and when she is done we are have a small ice cream party. Which, is why I got these spoons. They will be perfect for the party and clean up will be very easy.
Overall, I am happy that I got these spoons. I would recommend them to anyone who needs a bulk quantity of good quality spoons, and I don't have anything bad to say about them at all.

Good price
For a thousand spoons, you can’t do better. It’s a great value for the price. They’re not the most durable spoons, but they’ll handle a family reunion with ease. If you need them for the office or a reunion, or you just don’t want to do dishes, you really can’t beat it. Eventually I’ll buy them again.

Great Value & Eco-Friendly!
Color: Brown, Size: 9inch
I love these paper plates! They’re sturdy, affordable, and perfect for everyday use. I actually have them on an auto subscription every two weeks because we use them so often. I also love that they’re biodegradable, which makes them an even better choice for our family. Definitely a great value for the price!
