Spring is a time for new beginnings. Whether it's a baby shower, a wedding, a birthday, or Easter, there is one spring flower perfect for celebrating them all: Ranunculus. Their many layers of petals are like a smaller peony, while their leaves and buds are reminiscent of the delicate poppy. This interesting structure lends them to both modern and romantic arrangements.
I constantly find inspiration in the Ranunculus' rainbow of possible colors.They are cultivated in shades ranging from the palest green to the brightest hot pink. It is this wide spectrum that influenced my two "ombre" arrangements. The first is a decidedly simple fade from light to dark, with the stems on display in a large glass box. The second is more classic and subtle in a pale pink cut-glass compote. One perfect flower, infinite possibilities.
