Plum Tones

With a striking contrast of texture and color, this arrangement is a well-establish crowd pleaser with our clientele in South Florida. We’ve have chosen some of our favorites of the season for this design, featuring magenta scabiosa, fuchsia stock, and gorgeous deep pink roses. Combining scabiosa and roses together with green berries brought a hint of vibrancy and added texture.  Completing this piece was the addition of black cocoplums for a rich intensity to the overall arrangement. Every version of this design is slightly different due to the nature of the berry and plum branches.  Allowing the structure of the branches to lead the direction of the arrangement helps to create a natural flow.

Native to South Florida, the cocoplum is a common garden plant desired for their shiny green and red-tipped leaves, tiny white flowers and edible fruity plums. When it comes to floristry, we love to include the little plum-like fruits from this plant to add character to the arrangement. Whether the fruit is in its early stages as a light-green seed or a fully ripened satin-black plum, they bring the added effect of a beautifully inspired, artistically rendered free-flowing design.
