- Join me in the garden to Learn how to create a gorgeous floral column for your next wedding ceremony or special event completely floral foam free & using a sustainable & easy to create base that you create from everyday items from your home.
This technique & mechanics is incredibly adaptable & will allow you to then create full floral arches, semi arch, multiple columns. I share my thoughts on varieties of flowers & foliages that work best using free stemming [no water source] as well as showing you options of attaching water source containers. I hope this tutorial will inspire you to create stunning artful statement designs for your next event.

Thank you so much for showing us how to do this is just so beautiful I can't wait to try it I do have 30 gardens at memorial Park in New Kensington PA and I've been doing 1820 years and I just grow flowers out there for people to come and see and it's just so beautiful but I love your show thank you very much
Thanks for your lovely feedback Jeanne. Wow 30 gardens to manage! But so worth the effort i'm sure. Happy festive season
Lovely
Thank you 🌱
I was going to say it’s Jewel of Opar.
Gorgeous!
yes it is an must find some plants to pop in the garden
@@theivyinstitute I bought a packet of Jewel of Opar seeds that I’ll try growing next spring. (It’s too late in the growing season to start them where I am in Canada.🇨🇦)
By the way, thank you for introducing me to that lovely daisy-like white flower. It’s the one you weren’t sure if you would be using it or not, but in the end you did. (I heard you say it’s name but I’m not sure how to spell it.) I’ve never seen that kind before in my life! Lovely.
Flannel flower was it? its a beautiful Australian native flower & the petals feel soft like flannel fabric. @@karenm5681 lovely to have you join me from Canada, my birth home actually !
@@theivyinstitute Yes, that sounds exactly right!
And thanks…it’s lovely to be here! 🇨🇦 I subscribed immediately after watching this video because I’d love to see more of what you teach/do.
You gave me a very helpful tip to wear all black on the day of the event and blend in when designing an installation onsite, as I’ll be doing in about a month. The other weddings I’ve done have been much smaller and the flowers have just been picked up from my home, where I have my floral studio. I was debating whether to wear a cute floral dress because flowers are a luxury product but your reasons for wearing black/ comfortable/ professional/ functional make so much sense. Can’t go wrong with that, I think! ✨Thank you!💐
Also goes by the name of Talinum
This was great! I’m installing a pair of floating arbors for a wedding today and it was so inspiring! I’ve heard that last thing called Jewels of Omar. That’s probably made up too! Thank you! Had no idea pepperberry is ok out of water!
Yes it does last well out of water & thank you for your comment 🙏🏻
Will the Floral Column fall over easily with the weight of the materials? It is absolutely beautiful ! Great job !
Thank you for your comment.
No this base is concrete with a plastic pipe set in place, unless of course its a super windy day, in that case i would insert the branch directly into the soil for stability.
❤❤

Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with such detailed explanations (and for your smile). I was wondering how many flower stems did you use (approx!) to plan my own...? Thanks again from France :)
Hi there, thank you for your lovely feedback. I'm sorry I honestly can't remember now, this was filmed quite a while ago. Maybe during the watching you'll be able to see my buckets etc but it was only a couple of bunches per variety from. memory & even less if you group your flowersI do offer full dsign notes with every design within my membership though
.Enjoy
Beautiful! Your ruby jewel is called Talinum ‘Long John’.
Oh thank you! love it & am trying to get seeds or plants
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
thank you for the floral love 🙏🏻
Very elegant where I get the branche?
Thank you, you can find a branch anywhere close to bush or trees & forage.

This is fabulous. But I do have a question. Doesn't asparagus fern have thorns?
thank you lovely, & yes it does have small spiky bits [wouldn't actually class them as thorns] near the base of each frond, but they aren't too much of a problem.
Hi there. Love this design. How much would you charge to make this for a wedding please?
Thanks Jannie, i'm glad you enjoyed it. Pricing really does depend on costs of flowers & a florists individual overheads but a rough ball park for this design would be $850 - $1400 AUD
@@theivyinstitute Thank you so much for your honest answer, I really appreciate it. Have a wonderful day.
Jewels of Opar (Talinum paniculatum)? A wild guess...
Yes it is, I did find that out afterwards 😊 dries beautifully too. Thank you for the botanical name, I need this in my garden, do you grow it?
@@theivyinstitute would be nice to use dry for sure. it sort of looks like smoke bush too. No I dont grow it, but it does look good!
