Traditional Rose with Polka Dots

Take a spray rose, nothing in particular and add DOTS
Her Gown was very 
edgy, it had the raw cut rolling from the waist in waves, like water falling. This needed an equally stylish bouquet. Fresh fully-bloomed spray rose, Majolika was used. Accent polka dots in black & white.

This soft, textural, fresh beauty is made of butter-yellow sweetheart rose, white stock and Belles of Ireland.  

 Unwrapped and unadorned -simply gathered by hand and will be used in a Spring show.

Brides You Can't Have This In June

I am in love with this bloom, strong single stem and head about as wide as a tangerine. Simply put this is the treasure of March and April. Don't weep, they are working on innovative ways to bring this beauty to Michigan in Summer months.

Bo red Sick

This red garden rose will be the "star" of the show this summer, as cherry reds and sea blues make their debut.  
These rich bi-colors will be my choice for a May Bridal shower on a cupcake top, isn't this yummy?

 Gloriosa Orchid, large and spindly, need to bury them in bouquets ~ so they done de-petal during use. 

The cut garden rose - this floral bloom lasted 12 days.
Orange and browns, rusts and corals are still center stage this year, brides are choosing unique colors to "go-with" at my urging.
