This painting was created for my cousin as a wedding gift. Plants included in this bouquet are all native to northeastern North America. This piece is somewhat imaginative because plants, such as flowering dogwood bloom in early spring, in contrast with our native hibiscus, which bloom closer to August. Therefore, this particular arrangement of fresh flowers may not be possible in practice, but it is way cool as a work of art 🙂
Plants included in this bouquet:
-Swamp Rose Mallow / Hibiscus (Hibiscus moscheutos)
-Flowering Dogwood (Cornus florida)
-Sundial lupine (Lupinus perennis)
-Pearly Everlasting (Anaphalis margaritacea)
I so wish, I had talent like you.
I am sure your cousin, will treasure this gift.
Kind regards,
Kavita from Sunshiny South Africa
Thank you much, Kavita! And I’m sure you have your talents 🙂
