What is a flower garden called that makes a picture or spells words?

Friday, October 30th, 2009

I’m looking for the word that describes how flowers are planted or arranged in a garden to make a picture or spell out words. It’s usually a large garden display, and the flowers form words (like at the end of a city and the flowers would spell out the name of the city, or the flowers would make a huge clock face).

What’s that called?

What is the best way to clean silk flower arrangements (roses)?

Friday, October 30th, 2009


I just swish mine around in cold soapy water for a couple of minutes, rinse and dry gently in a towel. Actually, I do that for all of my silk flowers.

I’m trying to put together a floral arrangement with pink flowers & need to associate some black. Any Ideas?

Friday, October 30th, 2009

I’m trying to put some ideas together for some decorations for a bridal shower.

You could use black flowers. Some of the more lovely ones in my opinion are tulips, dahlias, and calla lilies. Other than that. Black stick pin crystals would be great. Also black beaded flowers. I tend to stay away from black ribbon because the last pink and black wedding I went to had pink and white flowers wrapped in black ribbon and it looked a bit funerally. If you are doing centerpeices, I highly reccomend black sand.
