Gerbera arrangement

Fragrant with magenta stock, several gerberas in different pinks, and the flowers of some pink heuchera in the garden


For some reason, I always choose a square or more contemporary shaped-vase for gerberas. Something about them screams modern to me...

Have a lovely weekend

Pinky Peonies

I ran across these lovelies, and just had to incorporate, I guess more accurately, "feature" them in these arrangements. I just love working with peonies, and other flowers that continue to transform while they are in your hands-it's so quick and lovely. Tulips are another flower like that; one you can manipulate even after its cut with nutrients, dye, dehydration, etc. to contort into whatever your design becomes.


Peony, hebe, lisianthus, stock

Following the architecture of the vessel, the floral arrangement takes on a dome shape but adds detail with delicate hebe, magenta stock, and truffle lisianthus, such as the etchings in the vessel.

 Lovely.
