Spring welcome
The sturdy base is made of a wooden pillar of scaffolding wood to which birch logs are attached. The two large water pipes are each mounted on wooden panels with a structure of gold-colored tile adhesive. The whole is interconnected by a branch construction made of wild honeysuckle vines. The following materials are incorporated in the water pipes: French tulip, Crassula 'Paintball Pop', Sandersonia, Viburnum 'Roseum', Chaenomeles, and pampas grass (Cortaderia selloana).
Blue treasure
A handmade unique bowl is filled with floral foam. The following materials are arranged in it; sprouting hazel branches with ‘catkins’ (Corylus avellana), tendrils of Dutchman's pipe (Aristolochia macrophylla), Salix viminalis, and blue grape hyacinths on bulbs (Muscari armeniacum). Feathers and quail eggs are glued onto the whole.
Spring statement
On a robust, self-made base of sawn and burnt wooden planks, large, rubber-wrapped injection tubes are placed for the water supply of the flowers. These contain pink Tulipa ‘Royal Ten’, snowball (Viburnum ‘Roseum’), Salix ‘Snowflake’, Amaranthus ‘Yearming Desert’, Helleborus ‘Mammoth Red’, Vriesea, Pieris japonica and Magnolia.
Harmony
Red Cornus is woven and knotted in an open structure woven from 1.8mm wire in the shape of a round open sphere. Various glass test tubes are also woven between the Cornus branches. The most beautiful flowers from the Marginpar collection, supplemented with some spring flowers, are placed in the glass tubes. The flower stems are left as long as possible so that the flowers have a nice movement and form a unity with the frame. Gloriosa superba 'Simba Fifty Shades', Clematis 'Amazing Miami', Talinum 'Long John', Helleborus 'Mammoth Red', Tulipa 'Avignon', Nerine 'Elegance Amor' and Ranunculus.
Circles
One hundred Aspidistra leaves are rolled up and pinned together to form a large organic circle. This structure stands independently and is placed in a round water bowl with a texture of many small circles. The flowers are arranged within the Aspidistra circle, placed directly in the water. The varieties used are: Clematis ‘Amazing Miami’, Panicum ‘Heavy Metal’, Eryngium ‘Sirius Questar’, Polianthes ‘Epic Elsa’, Helleborus ‘Bella Belles’, Ranunculus, and Muscari.
Transformation
To depict the transformation from winter to spring, old dried grasses and Hosta seed boxes have been used to form the base. Fresh spring flowers emerge through this, taking over the baton.
The base is a circle of Oasis Sec with goose eggs glued onto it. Many small test tubes are inserted in between. First, process the dry materials in the Oasis, then cover the whole with a layer of plaster and let it dry. Then add the flowers: Clematis ‘Amazing Miami’, Galanthus nivalis, Muscari, Narcissus ‘Avalanche’ and Ranunculus. Finally, the whole is placed on a beautiful gold-colored
plate.
