Between a rosette and a line
The distinctive shape of the open Oasis floral foam base remains visible in this design. Sempervivum rosettes were cut from the parent plant and attached directly to the base with headpins. Flowers and buds of Lilium ‘Apricot Fudge’ add various stages of development and soft apricot hues. Long strands of Flexigrass are woven through the floral arrangement, connecting the compact plant rosettes with the other materials. The seed heads of Scabiosa stellata provide a graphic accent; finely branched sections of Asparagus setaceus soften the transitions. In this way, compact and airy structures alternate within the open heart shape.
Sweeping
An Oasis basic holder in the shape of a heart was given a stem made of wire. To accentuate the heart shape a bit more, an extra layer of floral foam oasis was applied and finished with tape. The entire surface is sprayed copper-colored and then finished in several layers with deco sand (and glue spray). A sweeping wire construction with pink wooden flowers is placed over this. This is attached to the floral foam with copper-colored pins. The flowers are then glued into the arrangement: spray rose, (spray) chrysanthemum, Scabiosa stellata seed pods, lisianthus, Talinum ‘Long John’ and tendrils of Ceropegia woodii.Â
