mTip: Thinking outside the (flower) box for inside floral arrangements

June 13, 2012
Don’t let flowers have ALL the fun
when it comes to interior floral arrangements.
Think about grasses, foliage and seed pods too.

Pictured here in my friend’s gorgeous Heaven On Earth-Home are;
ornamental grass stalks (miscanthus giganteus) from our “green fence”,
the seed pods of the red ursa kale (brassica napus) from our kitchen garden
and a creamy single hybrid tea rose (Whisper) from our formal garden.

A thank you gift to her from me.
I brought the plants, she supplied the vessels.

Now, I must find out…
where did she buy those ROCKIN’ vases?

From her garden, a few cuttings of zebra grass
(miscanthus sinensis ‘Zebrinus’),
because I simply couldn’t resist
as I walked by them on my way to her door.
