Romantic Ranunculus

Thursday, February 17, 2011

I'm constantly amazed by all I learn about flowers from week to week, and the combinations of petals that floral artists bring together just delight me! This bouquet, a combination of pale pink ranunculus and roses in shades of ivory, pink and celery is absolutely gorgeous, don't you agree?

    beyond beautiful!
    The things about flowers is there are so many different combinations.. and by just adding one more shade or texture or height it would change the entire look.. i love that. and they are just so beautiful!
    thank you this made my day a little less... ugh.

    Me, hopefully hinting: I think my favourite flowers are probably poppies or ranunculus.
