While at Selby gardens this past weekend, they had an Asian Cultural Festival. One of the displays were these gorgeous flower arrangements.

The women that did these used various parts of plants, and other things, and all sorts of beautiful vases! It was really amazing! Enjoy!

What did you think??

This is beautiful art, indeed! I would never think of twisting vines and such to add to the colors and shapes the flowers offer. Creative and definitely original!

Wow! I am astounded by the elegant simplicity. I especially liked the one with the knotted leaves. I delivered flowers for a florist but I've never seen anything as beautiful as these.
Thanks. Now to go check out the pee wee trees.

My parents live on Siesta Key, and yet we have never been to Selby Gardens. We always think we will, and then it is too hot, or we get too busy. We had already decided that when we go down the end of this month, we were going to go this time. These pictures are really wonderful!
JoAnne D. Mar 1, 2008, 12:59pm UTC
Things that make you say aaaaaahh, the vases add to the great arrangements.
Lou Anne L. Mar 11, 2008, 9:55am UTC

Beautiful pictures!. Whenever I shop for flowers
, my favorite website to use is http://www.canadawideflowers.ca.. They have fast, reliable shipping that has yet to miss a delivery date for me. Also, they have the largest variety of flowers and plants that I have seen yet. I would definitely recommend them.
