Flowers in vases

Gerbera

Today at eight in the morning I have receiving a beautiful bouquet composed by pink gerberas daisy, salmon iris, mini white gerberas ; they came accompany with a personal card. They belonged to my husband to remember that ours wedding’s anniversary.

I adore flowers. And I have pleasure of making flower arrangements in all occasions, as well liking to have fresh flowers at home. With part of these flowers I made this floral arrangement in rose

You need:

A flat vase

3 Gerberas

1 Mini gerbera

Two white daisies or soft rose

1 Cortadeira of the pampas leaves

Gardening scissors

Metal support for flowers

You must cut the stream of the gerbera in diagonal form and leave her with approximately 3, inches of height, cut the other ones two in the same way with some less ones inches each one, Whit this kind of cut you must give movement, creating a funny arrangement. In the otherwise you can create a boring piece.

Cuts the mini lower gerbera to leave in the base.

Spit in the support and cut the cortadeira s in the same way and put behind each

flower following the size and to give a shade effect. Launching inside the vase and put the clean water

Flowers in vases

Tip: change the water every day and cut a small part of the stream flower. With that, you arrangement will reach more time.

If you don’t find cortadeira de los pampas you may use light bamboo

There is something about a gerbera, the deeply saturated color, like velvet. A beautiful, Asian-inspired arrangement, Sylvia. Happy Anniversary!
