FLORAL DESIGNS

DESIGN 49

For this design, I have used a simple lime-green vase, with floral foam for the mechanics. I have chosen orange and red-orange flowers for a strong contrast with the vase. For the height, I have used some green-painted Salix matsudana 'Tortuosa' (Twisted Willow). Foliage used is Fatsia japonica, which has been trimmed to a rounded shape, and some stems of Equisetum hyemale (Scouring Rush), which have been bent into triangles. The flowers used are Zantedeschia (Calla Lily), Gerbera and Leucodendron. The foliage was from the garden, and the flowers were from the florist.
