2009 Garden Show Inspiration

Happy New Year Everyone!!!
Jane, Claire and Kristi. It was a perfectly beautiful day to enjoy Council's Christmas flower show and tea.
One of the beautiful specimens winning one of the larger ribbons.
A lyrical design featuring broken shards of mirror.
This arrangement makes me wanna say, "get down boogie woogie". I think it was titled "Colors of Peace" or something like that.
Elegant candlestick arrangements in silver and gold!
A frame arrangement. Really nice. Unfortunately some of the blossoms had wilted by the time I took the pic.
Here are three magnificent variegated ginger leaf specimens. Yours truly won first. You didn't expect me to post a pic of my third place arrangement did you?
Breath taking orchids!
....and breath taking scenery in the botanical gardens on a crisp December day.
The majestic giants of the garden! Oh how beautiful.
