A renowned floral designer delighted members of Broughton Floral Club.
Martina Coleman, who had visited the club previously, was invited back by popular demand.
This time, she chose to create displays using the same flowers, including deep pink germinis, pink spray roses and blue pirouette clematis, for each arrangement.
Each display was set to fitting music, adding to the atmosphere of the demonstration.
One display, inspired by the musical Grease, featured a mix of pink flowers set in a shallow container, aptly named "Pink Lady."
Another arrangement, "La Miserable," used a metal container with tubes and glued logs, complemented by tall white flowers, grasses, and seed heads.
Coleman's Ikebana display had a Japanese feel, using a pin holder with pussy willow and hosta leaves.
Her final display, a vertical structure with glass tubes, included a variety of tall flowers and dyed feathers for impact.
The next meeting of Broughton Floral Club is on Wednesday, November 6.
