Phloral Arrangement – IAVOM – Hybrid

On By TimelessladyIn Phloral Arrangements

Monday morning, I’m enjoying the brilliant sunshine after a rainy Mother’s Day. My family was so sweet and showered me with flowers. All the raindrops were forgotten amid such love. The vase I’ve created is a hybrid, filled with flowers blooming in the garden and also with the small broken stems of the larger bouquets I received.

For today’s IAVOM, I used as a focal point a beautiful Iris that blossomed for Mother’s Day. I also included False Indigo stems from my garden, an excellent perennial for flower arranging. Can you spy the puffy chive blossoms near the Iris? The kangaroo paws, mini-carnations, tulip, and lily were broken stems from the Mother’s Day bouquets. 

In memory of my mother, I placed a bunch of yellow tulips in the living room. In her last months on this earth, her house was filled with vases of silken yellow tulips. When I look at them, I remember her and the cheerfulness of the flowers she chose to place in her home. A Willow Tree figurine, titled Tenderly, seemed perfect to include.

  8. Such lovely spring flowers in your little vase, and how nice to be remembered with flowers for Mothers Day (what is the timing for the US Mothers Day? In the UK it is related to Easter and was in March this year). The yellow tulips for your own mother and the figurine are so poignant – thanks for sharing them all with us too
