Asian Flower Class 2/9/09


The attached photo is from a recent flower design class. The instructor referred to this style as "Oriental Centerpiece" and is best for a round or oval dining table. The next undertaking will be the centerpiece for a square/rectangle shape...so the container will be long and narrow. I believe the flowers (if I took proper notes) are: Spirea, Alstromeria, Tulip and Rohora. You begin from the centerpoint of your foam or container and focus on proper angles in 3 corners initially. The white flower is to resemble snow. At the end of the class the instructor pulled me aside and said "You really seem to enjoy learning about flowers"......and I do!
