Preparing Pentecost Arrangements

The finished product!

Protea that looks like a firecracker!

Kangaroo Paw, Canna

Roses

Gladiolus and craspedia

It looks like it's smoldering, especially with the oranges from the birds of paradise, apricot roses, and carex 'Prairie Fire' ornamental grass.

We pulled colors through the arrangement that may not be "traditional". We all fell in love with the Red/Burgandy Japanese Maple foliage. One way we made it work in the design was to also use the purple canna and birds of paradise to pull the color of the maple foliage throughout the piece. Sometimes you have to go for it if you want to make an impression!

Desiree, lead designer on this project, created such a beautiful design that was full of fire and texture!
