Custom arrangements

I worked on a few custom arrangements before Mother's Day. This person wanted something for her office since it is spring. I put something together for her with mostly pink hues. That tulip I found is gorgeous!



The customer for this second order wanted a red color scheme for his girlfriend. Instead of the typical red roses you find in the grocery store, I used a couple of nicer varieties, Wanderer which has a lovely dark red color and Adonis which has an eye-catching, rich, red tone. I also used orange lilies, a black dahlia, deep purple ranunculus, maroon tulips, and jatropha (coral plant). I should have asked how long they been together because this customer was not expecting something this "fancy." He had only been on a few dates with his girlfriend so a couple of roses would have suffice. Now she will be expecting a wedding ring!



This arrangement was for one of my favorite people, Ciesther Delacruz of DCPG. She wanted to treat herself, plus her money plant died so she needed something pretty to replace it temporarily. I used white clematis (courtesy of Tina from Merrifield Garden Center), as the main focal point as well as black dahlia and jatropha for interest and texture.



Everybody was happy with their orders and I was happy with the results!
