Sunflowers and Hydrangeas
August 29, 2008
Back with the crowd favourite, Hydrangeas! this time paired with sunflowers, iris, stock, and a berry garland.

The arrangement stands about 3ft tall

The hydrangeas were picked directly from our gardens

Yellow and Purple are an incredible color choice, especially when you include Iris
Tropical Wedding Shower

Tropical Centerpiece
For this series of arrangements, a particularly artistic client wanted colourful and summery (but not too crazy) table arrangements. We opted to go with oranges and purples to give the shower a tropical and exotic feeling. There were going to be eight tables at the shower and we needed to keep the arrangements short enough so that guests could see each other over them. We used roses, tritoma, pin cushion, protea, birds of paradise, orchids, assorted eucalyptus, and other tropical plants such that each arrangement looked different. For the pictures below I picked out two of my favorite arrangements out of the eight.

As you can see, we used a 5x5x5" clear glass cube vase

The birds of paradise incorporate all the colours we used throughout the arrangement

The oranges and purples compliment each other immensely
