Have you noticed that I've been posting more on flowers lately? I've been reading a lot on floral arranging and practicing techniques along the way. This blog has now become a flower journal for me too and I hope you don't mind. One of the books I'm currently reading is by Jane Packer, and this is my version of a hydrangea garland she created. She displayed it as a dramatic centerpiece like I did here. Along with the main ingredient and hosta leaves from my sister-in-law's garden, I also included golden rod foraged from a field. Some of the hydrangea blooms are past their prime, but since I was just experimenting, I wasn't worried about how perfect the flowers were. Although, I do like the way the flowers blossom into a bright pink and then turn into a lovely shade of green and blush.
