Stately Sophistication

One block of pre-soaked floral foam was inserted into this ceramic vase. Two or three stems of magnolia quickly set the stage. Spraying the leaves with leaf shine gives them a gorgeous, glossy sheen. Next I added several stems of apricot Asiatic lilies. Five pincushion protea provide textural contrast. The tulip tree blossoms continued the color scheme and extended the lines of this dramatic arrangement. And it took less than half an hour to create!
