floral medley

peonies, begonias, roses, baptisia, lady's mantle and the freshest field flowers from Honey Brook Organic Farm http://www.honeybrookorganicfarm.com


this bowl is kind of monochromatic with dominant peaches and yellows and just a touch of white and blue. it is simply summer. these were flower heads left over from plate decorations in a catering job with chef Anne-Renee (Contact Chef Anne-Renee 609 915 1119). they held up really well for another week and a half, in large part due to shortness of stems - they wasted no energy on maintaining the stems or on holding up the heads which tend to be heavy. simple, beautiful, fragrant.... and recycled once again.
