Look & Wonder
“Flowers appeal to the imagination,” says arranger Angelique Diks. “They are perfect for creating a fairytale atmosphere. Cymbidium, with its traditional image, is ideal for the Look & Wonder theme.”
“The use of white as the main colour in winter has a surprising effect. We are often tempted to use warm shades during this time of year but a white background makes a perfect foil for subtle colour highlights. Natural green, purple and pink add pizzazz to white and soft natural shades.
Cymbidiums – in their many lovely pastel tints – are a fairytale in their own right. Used on its own this orchid creates a very individual level of excitement; it is a flower that cannot be seen in full at a single glance. Although Cymbidium is a powerful flower, it can be used harmoniously in arrangements. Cymbidium plays its part with panache in stylish, modern and traditional floral work. An unusual vase or the use of china birds are an extra inspirational prompt.

Mythical – the birds in this natural bouquet of Gypsophila paniculata ‘My Pink’, Cymbidium other green, Dianthus standard ‘Prado Pino’ and twigs, bring nature indoors.
White surprise – The unusual vase creates a fairytale effect with this simple arrangement of double flowered Eustoma russellianum ‘Excalibur Pure White’, Cymbidium B F ‘Silver’ and white twigs of Betula.
Winter romance – romantic sparks fly off this hand tied bouquet of mixed Cymbidium, Limonium sinensis Silver Diamond and spray Dianthus ‘White Fleurette’.
Sweet sensation – like a dish of sweetmeats: Cymbidium mixed, Gypsophila paniculata ‘Million Stars’, double flowered Eustoma russellianum ‘Excalibur Pure White’, double flowered Eustoma russellianum ‘Mariachi Misty Pink’ and Dianthus other mixed
.
Modern fable – Anthurium Andreanum Grp ‘Acropolis’ and Cymbidium B F ‘Silver’ sparkle and glow among the white twigs of Betula.
Tips: Sensually stimulating
Peace and harmony are the current trends in the world of interior design. Unusual floral design can create the excitement and lift the trend demands. Use flowers that stimulate the senses; that have a story to tell. This winter’s materials are refined and elegant, but benefit from a little playful estrangement. It’s OK for a single item to draw all the attention.
