Green Thumbs

We had our April Garden Club meeting last night at Artistic Flowers. The owner was so nice to open up his shop and give us some inside scoop into some beautiful, and what he called easy, arrangements! I'm not sure ours would turn out so great if duplicated. He mentioned that the key to great arrangements is the container so you should invest in great stuff that you'll have forever! I'm not sure my backyard is ready for this! The above pic was so neat. Those are Monestera leaves grouped with Gerbers. Very simplistic and pretty.
A wrapped wine bottle with this amazing collection of candles sitting in it.

If you look closely in the picture below you can see the vine in the square container. It's called creeping willow and it serves as the oasis for the flowers to go in. Super cool! How about the container that the moss and succulents are in? Triple love.
