A PASSION FOR ORCHIDS

Orchids take my breath away. Spidery varieties, big waxy blooms, delicate fluffy romantic kinds, and with colors ranging from soft pastels to screaming magentas to vibrant greens and golds, they are the strongest most hardy flower that can be used in many ways. Here are some gorgeous examples of different types of cut orchids used in arrangements as well as unique plants designed by Eddy (the hubby). Let us know what you think!
A great idea for the men in your life, or a business gift. Champagne, wine, sake or root beer and a spray of Cymbidium orchids.

Green goes with every decor, this arrangement of green Cymbidium orchids is fresh and simple. 

Stunning, romantic, and unconventional red James Story orchids with matching accents.

Grape Vanda orchids, green Anthurium, and a few feathers to make this fun.

A low ceramic planter stuffed with green Fugi mums and a few blooms from a white Phalaenopsis orchid.

We grouped white Phalaenopsis orchids, white callas, and contorted branches keeping it asymmetrically balanced. One color makes it ultra modern.
