Beautiful RARE flowers 2


Caramel InfusionThe name says it all — caramel, honey, toffee and an exotic elixir come home to a new realm of comfort colors. The aesthetic is subtle yet sublime, neutral but never dull. The look supports curves and softness. Our senses are lured not only by the color but also by the feel. Here we taste and experience luxury in the sanctuary of our own homes. Rich glazes, warm surfaces and amber hues combine to create a modern chic.
This style is uncomplicated and comfortable. Wooden vessels, glazed ceramics or amber to brown glassware are appropriate container choices. Cymbidium Orchids and Callas provide soft curves and perfect colors. ‘Leandra,’ ‘Citronella’ and ‘Limona’ roses all fit the color harmony while Leucadendrons, Leucospermums and Banksias all provide the color and a nod to the exotic. The sueded brown backsides of Magnolia foliage finish the look.


HydroponicThe emphasis is on health and well being, with green dominating this palette. Water and glass merge with botanicals, creating a spalike feeling. In this state, things are simple and clear—a sanctuary by design. Based off of white, a licorice hue accents the palette, and you’ll also find a lilac ash and illusion blue, as well.
Clinical and clean best describe this presentation. Floral materials that support the feeling are ‘Super Green’ and ‘Jade’ Roses, ‘Green Goddess’ Callas, Green Cymbidium Orchids, Green Gladioli, Green Anthuriums, King and Queen Proteas, Banksias, Grasses, Herbs and Ferns, as well as monobotanical foliage presentations.


Rose HipTexture drives design style in these close colors. Some flowers that support the look and feel are ‘Moreno’ and ‘Gypsy Curiosa’ Roses, Orange Lilies, ‘Choco’ and Red Anthuriums, Leucadendrons, Leucospermums, Kangaroo Paws, Celosia, Hypericum and Epidendron Orchids.
Experience the return of earth tones with a sense of luxury. This rich, analogous color harmony ranges from deep mahogany hues to terra-cotta, clay, carnelian red and rose tones with a copper accent. Warm and sensuous spice tones simmer to top notes of pink, while deep cocoa, caramel and coffee tones cooked to gooey perfection, tempting the senses. It is about organic elements—glazed ceramic, worn leather, stitching on leather, textured metals, worn and suede surfaces.
