For the mothers, one of his potted orchids couldn't fail to please.
Pim Sukkerd definitely brings the outdoors in with her delicate pink lotus water lily or exotic purple water lily ‘planted’ in a bowl of water. She also has an amazing selection of orchids, iris, hyacinths and lilies in a beautiful array of colors.
From Abby Benner is a single, perfect dahlia in a glass vase. What says welcome summer more than a dahlia? Unless maybe it’s a tall stalk of vivid blue larkspur.
Another single perfect flower in a vase is the pale peach Lady X Roses by IGMA Fellow Era Anderson Pearce. But her Wisteria Sinensis has blooms to spare dripping from a trellis, begging to be cut and displayed in pride of place in the center of the dining room table.
Her Custom Orchid Arrangement is another definite pride-of-place piece – so many orchids (seven different species no less!) are crammed into a huge bowl for an amazing, overflowing look that you can just imagine would smell heavenly.
