Last Year's Tendrils


You can probably guess that this arrangement is somehow related to the last post of the bouquet with "Everything I had". You're right. I reconfigured the pieces adding some to compose the aforementioned bouquet. A sprawling arrangement made in an old tarnished silver revere bowl containing dried Clematis tendrils (from last year's display), English Ivy, Pussy Willow, Delphinium, Cherry Branches, Queen Anne's lace, Skimia, Astrantia, young Parrot tulips, Poppies and Hyacinth. I'd like to see this on an escort table surrounded by assorted pewter candlesticks- maybe an old candelabra for good measure. The lost garden above is from one of my favorite garden paths at Lowther Castle in England. A tour of long lost gardens in Europe is in the works!

The Big The Bold & The Beautiful





This bouquet was made for the current issue of New York Magazine Weddings. The features editor asked for bouquets made in primary colors, so here is my blue bouquet. Other spectrums will follow.

Delphinium, Monkshood, Passion vine and flowers, grasses, ferns and Scabbiossa pods.
