Design of the Week: Memorial Tribute

This week's Design of the Week is a memorial piece I designed for a gentleman over the weekend.  He was a farmer and former president of the Wisconsin Soybean Marketing Board so I personalized this arrangement by filling the vase with soybeans.  Flowers and foliages included in the arrangement are gladiolas, bells of Ireland, white hydrangea, white roses, lotus pods, Asian honeysuckle, curly willow, dendrobium orchids, stock, "Green Tricks" dianthus, robellini palm, and brezlia berries

I think it's always a great idea to include something personally significant in memorial tributes.  They mean so much more with a custom-tailored touch.
