This European Style arrangement features purple stock, mauve hydrangeas, apricot dahlias, deep red roses, amaranthus and spiral gum in a tall vase.

Florist foam has been soaked in water and placed in a number 6 florist container and secured to the top of the vase with Surestick which is similar to Bluetack.

The stems have been cut to the desired length.

The stock is placed in the foam - the tallest stem should be at least one and a half times the height of the container- you can always go higher. The roses, hydrangeas, dahlias and spiral gum are positioned lower down so the widest part is across the base. The amaranthus is placed around the base to give a lovely cascading effect.

This floral design is explained briefly - In the Floristry Course each lesson gives you the exact length to cut each stem and where to position it in a design.
