The Sweet taste of Salvia...

When you pull out the center of the Salvia Flower... it exposes

this white end... and it's filled with nectar... if you put in your

mouth it tastes sweet...

Creative and awe-inspiring.

Scottish Sculptor Andy Goldsworthy... creates earth land
art from natural leaves, sticks, stones and other
natural objects...

His work is creative and awe-inspiring... his maticulus
attention to detail... makes some of the sculptures appear
to be airbrushed with color...

however it's just Andy's attention to color and arranging
and placing the perfect objects together in a pattern...

One of my favorites... How about you??

I ran across this "NEW" Variety at the World Flower Expo in Los Angeles last month...

I'm sure you're used to seeing it's common "Snow-white" Cousin...
This one has been "color enhanced"... to give it a rainbow of hues...

It's "Rainbow" Gypsophilia... or "Rainbow" Babies Breath... 

P.S. I Love it... what do you think?

"Blooms from Bloomsburg" Alstro

I recently visited my good friends at Dillon Floral Products...

They grow amazing Local Gerberas, Germinis, Lilies and Alstroemeria...

I love Alstro... and when you see how gorgeous and robust the "Blooms from Bloomsburg" Alstro is... you get inspired...

I was there to teach a composite flower class... so I created an
Alstro-melia... a composite Flower using their Picanto variety of Alstroemeria...

It's takes a little bit of patience and a steady hand... and little
bit of oasis glue and Chrysal Professional Glory...

And Of Course Picture Perfect Alstromeria- THANK YOU Dillons!

P.S. What inspires you to get creative???

WOW #alstro
