Lewis' Florilegium
Many of the flowers that appear in Lewis's work are wild ones. His predilection for scented plants is clear in the four loves. He imagines elaborate floral creatures in his science fiction and he writes of admiring homely kitchen gardens with his friend Arthur. Beyond the garden, Lewis spent many happy times walking through the countryside with family and friends covering quite remarkable distances in Ireland with brother Wernie.
