Distinctly winter
This hand-tied sheaf bouquet proves that you don't have to shy away from bold colors even in winter. Beautiful Scabiosa from the Scoop series, together with Gloriosa superba, forms a warm base and contrasts beautifully with the yellow accent of Limonium 'Max Diamond'. The purple Clematis also adds a beautiful color accent. The warm appearance of the gold-colored pot completes the picture.
Grown together
Salix branches bent into a U-shape are fixed with 1.8mm braided wire. A refined selection of flowers is placed at different heights in this frame and tied in a sheaf: Chaenomeles, Nerine, Gloriosa superba ‘Simba Fifty Shades’, Ranunculus ‘Butterfly’, Scabiosa ‘Bon Bon Scoop French Vanilla’, Talinum ‘Long John’, Tulipa jonquieres, Panicum ‘Heavy Metal’ and Limonium ‘China White’.
Connection
A cylinder shape has been made from dried palm leaves, a flexible and natural material. Water tubes have been placed in this with Typha grass and Gloriosa superba ‘Simba Fifty Shades’, the stems of which are attached to the cylinder along with the shape.
On a bed of clay
For the base, a clay foundation was created, which cracked upon drying, resulting in a weathered appearance. A light structure was bound with iron wire and wrapped with Oasis bindwire. Water tubes, partially wrapped with bindwire, are attached to this structure. After securing the structure in the clay, a floral display is created using robust Jatropha 'Firecracker', mini Anthurium, and Begonia leaves, combined with delicate Gloriosa superba 'Simba Fifty Shades'. Typha grass provides connection.
