Beautiful RARE flowers

Ladybird Poppy The original Flanders poppy. Ladybird is the British term for ladybug and an appropriate description of these poppies. Stunning, shiny single blooms of bright crimson with a black blotch. Showy 3 inch flowers on long wiry stems. Height 18 inches. Approximately 3500 seeds/package.



Moody Blue Infusion While the presence of deep denim remains strong, the mood is changed as it is paired with deep turquoise and accented by emerald green. This fashion-forward look goes from cool during the day to urban-chic at night. Clean, elegant and uncomplicated lines let the colors take center stage.
Smooth ceramic glazes in teal, blue and green as well as blue glass vases and shallow bowls are perfect vessels for this look. Where there is glass, there is water and light. Play off of multiple vases in close hues of blue and teal to create a dramatic effect. Not only are blue blossoms such as Delphiniums and Irises enjoyed here but also the glamour flowers of the ‘40s and ‘50s really shine. Cattleya and Cymbidium Orchids, Gardenias and Callas all become Hollywood stars.

 


Baccara InfusionNamed for the rose that is this color, ‘Black Baccara,’ the Baccara Infusion dares to live with deep mysterious shades of red. Tempered with browns, it becomes a rich and sumptuous refuge. Here you find classical elements punctuating the neutral landscape, creating a classical elegance.
Marked by opulence and luxury, rich textures and layers of close burgundy related tones define this look. ‘Black Magic,’ ‘Bull’s Eye’ and ‘Black Baccara’ roses are only a few rose varieties that create the feel. ‘Sumatra’ and ‘Cobra’ Oriental lilies provide not only the color but the scent. Callas and Cymbidium orchids imbue style while Celosia, Coral Bells, Amaranthus, Cone Flowers, Dahlias, Chocolate Cosmos, Coccinea and Kangaroo Paws provide texture. When these botanicals are mixed together, the end result is lush.
