Cycle
For this base, a vase three-quarters filled with Oasis Floral Foam Bio for the heavy stems, the top part of the vase is filled with Oasis TerraBrick for the softer stems and a nice finish. The base is made of dried sunflowers and dried-in roadside flowers from last summer. Through this frame 'grow' the tulips, Clematis Amazing Seville, Sanguisorba 'Red Dream', Talinum 'Long John', Chaenomeles, Fritillaria meleagris, Geranium, Hamamelis, Helleborus 'Bella Belles', Ranunculus and Polianthes tuberosa. All materials are staked in a natural-looking parallel fashion.
Spring Explosion
In a glass bowl filled with clay, pieces of bamboo stem varying in height were inserted - these, to prevent splintering, were cut into pieces with a band saw. The bamboo serves as a water carrier but also as a support to hold the flowers in place. A wide variety of spring flowers were incorporated: Gloriosa, Papaver, Anemone, Ranunculus, Polianthes tuberosa, Sanguisorba, Talinum 'Long John' and Chasmanthium latifolium.
Still Life
In two elegant pots, filled with Oasis Floral Foam Bio, a carpet pad of Gypsophila 'Million Daisy' is briefly inserted. From this base come various beautiful white and cream spring flowers such as Clematis Amazing Vienna, Narcissus, Ranunculus, Tulipa, Anemone, Fritillaria meleagris, Agapanthus, Helleborus, Nerine and Polianthes tuberosa 'Elsa Blush'.
Quiet
An Oasis Venezia Bowl is placed in a styrofoam mold and stuck on the
outside plastered with lichen. For this, Oasis cold glue was used because
hot glue often "eats away" the styrofoam. In the Venezia bowl a wig
of Calocephalus green. Between this beautiful base is Polianthes
'Elsa,' Astrantia and the white Agapanthus 'Glacier. Scutellaria
'Tinkerbell' and pretty Clematis fluff add a lovely touch.
Winter garden
In an iconic aluminum spout vase, the
mossed Larix branches a base arranged in the
angled openings of the spouts. Between them
various flower varieties in different white
nuances; Polianthes 'Elsa', Agapanthus
'Glacier', Clematis 'Amazing Seville' and
Clematis 'Amazing Kibo' fluff. The black
grass, Pennisetum 'Black Fox,' connects the
black vase with the Larix branches and flowers.
Subdued
For this Mother's Day bouquet in beautiful shades of brown, 5mm aluminum wires are wrapped with metallic wool, in between is a brown fabric heart. A beautiful symbolism: the heart is pierced with one thread and the remaining threads 'grow' around it as well as the flowers weaving through the threads. Sanguisorba, Talinum 'Long John', Cambria orchid, Phalaenopsis, Gloriosa, Japanese Allium, Scabiosa, beautiful brown carnations and wonderfully fragrant Polianthes tuberosa are incorporated here.
