Flower arranging: fresh and fruity display
Lilies and limes make a striking arrangement to add elegance to any room in your home
You will need:
● tall glass vase
● 8 limes
● 8 lilies
● spray of grass stems
● 3 chrysanthemums
● 3 purple trachelium
● 5 aspidistra leaves
● pins
Tip: This display should last around ten days if the water is changed every few days. Keep colours to a minimum - it will add more impact.
Step 1
Fill vase with limes and add water.
Step 2
Add trimmed lilies after removing any leaves that are immersed in water. Then place grass stems behind lilies.
Step 3
Trim chrysanthemums and purple trachelium, so they sit a few inches above the vase.
Step 4
Fold back four aspidistra leaves with pins and place all the way around the vase. Wrap top of vase with remaining aspidistra leaf and pin into place.
