Birthday Flowers in November

For a spe­cial birthday in Marin, her par­ents called us from their home in beau­tiful Brittany. A series of tele­phone calls and e-​mails set the guiding tone as soft yellow, spring, peach. For this, Yukiko designed the bou­quet below: peach roses with a subtle accent of “wax” flowers, mag­nolia leaves, nan­dina leaves and Hawthorne foliage.

The tone is a reflec­tion, a reminder of the daughter’s favorite flowers and colors as she was growing up.

BTW, you prob­ably knew this already, but I’ll write it here anyway: “wax” flowers are not wax; they are real flowers with a waxy coating deep inside.
