夏から秋に収穫した、ピンク系のセンニチコウをいっぱい使い、フランスの形成式花壇をイメージした作品。

使った花材は、ピンク、白、ピンクと白のバイカラーのセンニチコウ。このぐらい大きな木箱ですと、大きさのそろった花を用意するのが大変。もう少し小さ目の木箱に薄く切ったオアシスを敷詰め、センニチコウを挿して行った方が簡単でしょう。

センニチコウは、二株もあればたくさんの花が収穫できます。花の色が長期間変色しないのも魅力。庭の植栽をかねて、一度トライしてみて下さい。

  

Using the harvest of globe amaranthes from summer to autumn, I crafted pink french style flower bed.

I selected globe amaranthes with pink, white, bi-color of pink and white for this flower bed. It is rather hard to harvest flower heads with similar size for this wooden box. Please select smaller wodden box for a beginning. To plant the wired globe amaranth, please place sliced florist foam in the bottom of a box.

You can harvest a plenty of flowers from two seedlings of globe amaranth. It is the attractive flower for dried flower arrangement as it hold its color for a long time. Pink color globe amaranthes is very pretty in a summer garden, among all other striking red and yellow summer flowers. Please try it in next year in your garden.
