April hails the beginning of spring, with all of its glorious renewal of flowers and fauna. Let's join in the celebration by adding a little bit of colorful artwork of our own.
Your prompt this month is to either create or redesign the book cover of a book that either has a flower/plant in its name or a book that would benefit from such a cover.
For example:
Snow Flower and the Secret Fan might benefit from such a cover (filled with snow flowers of course)
or
The Great Gatsby has a central character named Daisy. See where this is going?!
Please post your entries below to receive credit. Please keep the graphics to 600x600 or less -- and make sure that all submissions are HOL appropriate. If you post a graphic, please write a brief description of what it is underneath.

Re: April Prompt-Say It With Flowers!
I chose The Name of the Rose by Umberto Eco. Taking up most of the pale pink cover is a close-up of a red rose done in a water colour style (with some parts darker than others). The title runs over two lines and sits above the illustration in a large dark red font that has a slight script feel. The author’s name is below the illustration, similarly styled, but smaller.

Magic for Marigold by L.M. Montgomery
The image shows an ivory and gray background with orange dots that spiral around the center image of two orange marigold flowers attached by a green stem, and the title "Magic for Marigold" at the top of the cover and the author "L.M. Montgomery" at the bottom of the cover, with all text being in black.
