Florets - Floral Quote - # 134 - by Selina Lake

'Florets - Floral Quote' is a series of blog posts where I feature quotes by authors - mostly well known but you will also find some obscure ones.

All of them have written one or several books about flowers, gardening, interior styling or interior design. Many are experts in their field but what is the most important is that they are all passionate about flowers.

I love books and in my ever growing library I look for quotes that I hope will be both helpful and useful while arranging and styling flowers.  

" Winter
It's berry season! as we get our homes ready for a cosy winter, there's a change in the type of botanicals we want to display. Mini pine trees are a nice Nordic-style addition and sprigs of red berries arranged in glass vases make a festive centrepiece for the dining table. Eucalyptus looks great placed in tall vessels or made into a wreath and it brings a wintry scent to the home."
