dutch masters

fritillaria_imperialis

There's been a lot of anticipation for our Dutch Masters Class over at Little Flower School in the past months...We've started collecting the blooms to use; including these incredible Fritillaria Imperialis...

These are special (and rather skunky; to be frank, they're rank) but like good parents, floral designers love all flowers the same - the sweet and the skunky.

The Imperialis is so special we only bought one per student; and we've had a last minute cancelation in Sunday's class, maybe you'll consider taking it and snatching the tenth fritillaria imperialis...

And! speaking of dutch masters; I have to share another exciting flower school I just discovered; Remco van Vliet is teaching classes, more info here.
