The Mystical Flora of St. Francis de Sales brings together the choicest of St. Francis’s spiritual comparisons drawn from plants and flowers, forming a perfect treatise on the devout life, from its first faltering steps to its fulfillment, following the principles set out by the saint in his ascetical writings.

Saint Francis comes in from the garden with his hands full of spiritual comparisons from the flowers he has found in bloom – through his words our souls become as vividly conscious of the truth he expounds as our senses would be of the flower of which he speaks, were we to hold its stem in our hands and breathe in its fragrance.

This is a book to delight all who love plants, and will bring the gift of inspiration to all who seek grace. This new edition is generously illustrated with contemporary plant engravings.
