How to make this beautiful Mother's Day Tribute

Materials needed:

  • 1 OASIS® floral foam center piece (cylinder)
  • OASIS® Clear Solution™ Nutrient & Clarifier
  • 'Santa Fe' White Roses
  • Purple Iris
  • Dendrobium Orchids
  • Queen Anne's Lace
  • Miniature Ivy
  • Curly Willow
  • Leather Leaf Fern
 

How to put it together

  1. Saturate the OASIS floral foam center piece (cylinder) with a mix of water and Clear Solution™ Nutrient & Clarifier. Make loops with 5-7 stems of curly willow and insert the ends into the foam, leaving space between them. You may gather the willow stems with a small wire on the top to secure them.
  1. Place ivy and leather leaf fern deep into the floral foam to cover it entirely. Place 4 or 5 purple Iris at different heights, leaving space between them.
  1. Add a dozen Santa Fe white roses with short stems and distribute them evenly at the centerpiece's bottom.
  1. Add some Dendrobium stems at the center of the arrangement, filling the voids. Finish placing Queen Anne's Lace at the bottom of the centerpiece in order to add some light and volume to the design.
