Floral Arrangements Guide
Unlike most creative arts, floral arrangement
has the advantage of natural, not man-made material.
In all the centuries of mankind we have been unable
to reproduce the thrilling combination of soft texture,
graceful lines, radiant color and delicate scent found
in a single rose.
Science has, however, greatly advanced the planting
of garden flowers by constant research and experiment.
History shows us that as far back as 562 B.C.,
King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon designed the beautiful
"Hanging Gardens" for his wife, Amytis. They are one of
the "Seven wonders of the world."
Today we see about us our own lovely gardens,
some formal, some informal, designed to enclose
our homes in an aura of enchantment.
The desire to bring some of this beauty into our homes
gave birth to the art of flower arrangement,
which is by no means a new one.
The Japanese people used it centuries ago in their
daily life and religion. There it is called "Ikebana" and is an art for all of us.
All we need is the appreciation of beauty
and a few flower arrangement implements.
The fields, woods, brookbanks, gardens,
and of course your local flower shop are
abundant with the many varieties of plant
materials used in flower arrangement.
As you page through this site,
you will find that it tells in simple copy and
illustrations, just what you want to know
about your new hobby.
The possibilities of Floral Arrangements are unlimited.
