Calla Lilies with Larkspur Bouquet — September Flowers

Calla lilies are so elegant in themselves, I have to be careful to choose seasonal flowers and foliage that will genuinely complement the calla lilies and complete the design.
I believe this recent bouquet is successful — what do you think?

I have begun using this design blog2 to publish images of my new floral designs — from photos taken just before they leave the studio, or in some cases at the client’s site.
This format allows us to publish larger images in continuous sequence of design. Also, they can be retrieved by Catogory– as listed on the right.
