Background and recording
De Todas las Flores became Lafourcade's first project of completely original material in seven years, since her fifth studio album Hasta la Raíz (2015).[1][3] The album was produced by French-Mexican musician Adán Jodorowsky, once a neighbor of Lafourcade in Mexico City, who also enlisted American guitarist Marc Ribot, American bassist Sebastian Steinberg, and French percussionist Cyril Atef to play on the album. Pianist and arranger Emilio Dorantes also performs on the album.[1]
Lafourcade described the album as her "musical diary," exploring heartbreak, loss, and grief themes. She drew inspiration from nature, especially her home garden in Xalapa, Veracruz.[4] The album's title "references the inner flowers that have withered and the ones still blooming."[5] Lafourcade's influences for the album include Violeta Parra, Omara Portuondo, and Joni Mitchell.[1]
The album was recorded entirely on analog tape in a Texas town near El Paso.[1][4]
