Orange Wealth

This vibrant floral arrangement brings the warmth of summer to life. The reusable base of wood and dried reeds, provides a visual respite for the flowers. The base features durable Oasis Bio floral foam in which beautiful orange hues of Haemanthus and Kniphofia combine beautifully with playful accents of lilac Allium, grasses and other natural materials.

Summer Flash

With an explosion of color, this arrangement depicts the vibrancy of summer. Orange and lilac flowers dance on a striking green handmade wooden frame. With a mix of Kniphofia, Digitalis, elegant tall Gloriosa, Lathyrus and other flowers, it is an ode to the warm season.

The frame is cleverly designed for double-sided and multi-use, making it both practical and durable. Whether you use it in its original state or flip it over for a fresh new look, the arrangement shows as a striking piece of art for virtually any space.

Elegant summer

Matching the transparent undulating form, fragile lines and delicate white/green materials were chosen to create a refined balance
create. For the base, twelve welding wires (Ø 1.8mm) were attached and bent into a white wooden plant table. Thin tights (20 denier) were then pulled over the wires and secured at the bottom with cold glue. The whole thing was lightened up a bit with white spray paint. Along the edges, glass tubes and globe vases were secured with Poly Max and then made up with white flowers and greenery: Nigella damascena 'Bridal White' (damsel-in-
't-green), Scabiosa Scoob White, white Ixia and Delphinium, Platycerium bifurcatum (staghorn fern), Aristolochia tendrils and Tillandsia plants

Black and white balance

The large white Delphinium and the calm fresh colors of Celosia and Ammi are a counterpoint to the black decorative forms. The colors of white and black are nicely balanced. For the background, a Styrofoam sheet was first painted with latex and then sprayed black. From this, two decorative shapes were cut and attached to an Oasis cake dummy with wooden prickers. The whole thing was placed on a water dish. The green materials were also inserted into the floral foam and partially attached to the Styrofoam with window pins where the decorative round lines are enhanced with lily grass and the white Delphinium 'New Rocket'. In the arrangement you will find Hedera and Bergenia cordifolia foliage, Ammi visnaga, green Celosia argentea var. cristata, Cordyline compacta and Pennisetum 'Black Fox'.

Summer outdoor living

For a country-style garden party, tough and rugged was combined with sophistication, soft colors and lovely materials. For the table decoration, four aluminum wires were wrapped with straw and winding wire and attached to a glass vase with waterproof tape. Straw was wrapped around the vase with wrapping wire. Inside the vase is a smaller vase; it can be easily removed to change the flower arrangements. A half block of Oasis Bio floral foam is placed in the small, inner vase. Into this are inserted the flowers and grasses: golden yellow Rosa 'Golden Lady,' Craspedia globosa, motherwort (Tanacetum parthenium), Panicum 'Umbrella,' Panicum 'Heavy Metal,' and blue damselfly-in-green.

Happy bobbing

For this summer floating wreath, pieces of styrofoam were glued under the floral foam wreath with mounting sealant - let harden for 24 hours. The styrofoam allows the wreath to float well. The floral foam was then pierced ajour with various flowers in pastel shades: Italian Ruscus, soft pink spray rose 'Pepita', golden yellow Rosa 'Golden Lady', pink-yellow Rosa 'Romantic Vuvuzela', Clematis Amazing Miami, motherwort (Tanacetum parthenium), lisianthus 'Blue Château', Lathyrus 'Mango', lilac Campanula medium and Panicum 'Heavy Metal'.
