The beauty of designing arrangements with home grown flowers is that they are rarely flower-store-perfect, and because of this they offer an interesting, informal look. To complement the bright red mandevilla in this arrangement, subtle silver helichrysum, and clippings from a rough textural tea tree bush were added. Lastly, berries from the nandina bush, which are just starting to turn colorful now, were added.
Containers also make a big difference in the overall style of an arrangement. The low and dramatic square vase pictured below has a contemporary style, yet the same flowers look very vintage and eclectic in the silver filigree wineglass. There are so many different possibilities!
