1) Provenance and Form
Choose stems with strong architectural lines. Build a backbone with foliages like ferns, salal, and eucalyptus to anchor bouquets.
Seasoned Flower Arranging, Cottage-Garden Style
At Evolve Bordentown, we celebrate robust forest-inspired palettes, heirloom textures, and sustainable design. Our homegrown florals and curated arrangements empower experienced gardeners to craft tangible, artful compositions with seasonal flair.
2) Color Discipline
Operate in forest-friendly palettes: moss greens, deep olive, bark browns, with occasional warm amber accents.
3) Texture Overload
Layer textures—velvet petals, papery bracts, and airy seedheads—to create depth and movement.
