Tropical Flowers

I visited Splendor during a visit to Colombia- and saw the amazing variety of Protea and Leucadendron that grow on their Rosamina Farm.
It’s amazing the varieties that are available- and they are the perfect flowers for this hand tied centerpiece created in a bronze bowl from Accent Décor – that has a bronze branch in the middle- it’s great because the branch can be detached and I simply made the hand tied bouquet of Splendor Protea and Leucadendron around the branch- secured it with bind wire and then cut to length and reattached the branch- it holds the hand tied in place and the bronze branch is an incredible accent for this long lasting centerpiece.
The container is from Accent Décor- it’s part of their E+E Mystic Branch Collection- you can visit the Accent Décor Retail Locator and find a resource near you- to find the vase!

Splendor has an amazing assortment of Protea and Leucadendron – you’ll be as amazed as I – when you see the selection.
