so this weeks flowers went a little left field
there were no flowers
seem like a cop out in the garden ?
no they are sensory arrangements
designed to touch, feel and smell with aromatic foliage and textural qualities
each leaf in the retro coffee cup has a singular aromatic quality
native mint, fennel, native peppermint, curry plant, rosemary, balm Gilead
touch, crush, experience "flowers" from a tactile perspective
told you it was left field !
and now . . . . back to your regular programme
some micro posies
they will feature in a cup cake stand !
each little posy sits within a small milk jug (or creamer)
scented wallflowers,
deep pink crab apple blossoms,
burgundy leaved heuchera,
and dark purple flax
Get the full flower story over at moi jardiniere
I love the micro posies ! Beautiful. Hope you had a great weekend.
ReplyDeleteI love the idea of sensory arrangements.... that is really wonderful. I'm very textural and love to touch things. I sometimes (when my very small garden allows) gather up a bunch of different 'greens' that have different leaf shapes, different patinas (like really glossy ones or more matt ones), and different textures. I really like putting these together and feeling them as I do it!
ReplyDeleteAnd, I LOVE aromatic leaves.... I really like rubbing them around in my hand and getting the scent to release even more.
