! ! ! ! ! ! Delphinium

One of our

favorite linear

flowers.

Delphinium is a

bold striking

flower. It is

characterized by

both its linear

shape and its

gorgeous blue

color.....





Green Bell

Also known as pennycress. This flower is a filler material,

meaning that it has tiny florets (eg. like babysbreath or

statice). It is wispy. It is linear. It adds personality to any

design that it graces.





Green Trick Dianthus

This has become one of our favorite flowers! This flower has

a very distinctive texture and actually feels ”bushy!” It is a

dianthus making it a relative to the carnation. But this

definitely isn’t Dad’s carnation! This one can be used for all

kinds of designing, from classical to bleeding edge. It is also a

very, very long keeping flower, and holds up well in water or

foam.





! ! ! ! ! !

! ! ! ! ! ! ! Hypericum

One of our favorite berries!

Berries always add new life and

dimension to floral art.

Hypericum is one that we enjoy using,

for it is available in various colors. It is

relatively easy to get. It is also fun to

work with.





Kochia

This stuff is incredible...... A striking silver/white foliage

that works well with just about anything.... It can be used

in designing ranging from holiday designing to everyday

florals. Kochia can actually help to enhance any flowers

that are mixed with it!





Lisianthus

Lisianthus is one of those flowers that make any

arrangement feel more natural and exciting. It is available in

a range of colors, from white/ivory, to pink to even blues

and lavenders. It holds up well. It should definitely be a part

of every floral designer’s repertoire of floral materials....





! !

! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! Ornithogalum Dubium

Ornithogalum is one of those flowers that looks great

whether it is tight or more open. The ornithogalum

that we have used in this gallery are yellow and

orange.

We have used them here and there in our designing

to provide a very bright and cheerful counterpoint to

other floral materials.

It is a very hardy flower. Some stems of ornithogalum

lasted weeks after our photo shoot.





! Ranunculus

Ranunculus is one of our favorite flowers because it is

so bright and colorful. Looking for something that will

add visual punch and pizzazz? You will find it with these

flowers.





Sunflower

The most optimistic flower we know of. They are a wonderful

flower to greet you first thing in the morning as they practically

radiate happiness! Sunflowers are enjoying renewed popularity.

It’s easy to see why!





Variegated Pittosporum

Variegated pittosporum has been a favorite foliage for

many generations of floral artists.

It covers mechanics quickly and easily.

I love the cream color that is found on the tips of the

leaves.......

It gives a very distinctive character to floral designing

ranging from bouquets, to vase arrangements and

more.....





Xanadu

Isn’t this a great foliage?

Xanadu is a foliage that is wonderful to use to define

shape and form of floral art.

! It is structural and architectural and helps to define

! space. It is large, but not huge! We love this foliage.
