Layered Bulbs
A stack of nuts and polystyrene balls in various sizes is glued onto an iron pin. The polystyrene balls are coated with terracotta-colored clay. Bromelia plants are placed in some of the nuts. Glass vials are clamped in the remaining openings, in which Dahlia flowers and spotted leaves of Begonia maculata are inserted. The conscious choice was made for one type of flower with a round shape. To reinforce the design of the arrangement, the round shapes are reflected in all materials used. As a finishing touch, seed pods of Eucalyptus ‘Bellgum’ and mossy twigs are glued between the round shapes.
Autumn Tide
The approach of autumn is already announcing itself in mid-August. The wind sounds different, there is more moisture in the air, and the spiders diligently create more and more silver air bridges between plants and flowers. Foggy gray days alternate with sunny warm late summer days. And the outdoor scent, too, is more prominent, more earthy.
