If I remember rightly, there is a photo of a posy pad in the interflora sympathy guide.I remember it had African violets in it.It might even be on the interflora website. In my old job we actually made a few gardens on a designer sheet.We used a small watering can and some small pots and stonesand then chopped at some plants.

I love the way you can use almost anything in floristy.e.g dolls house furnature.Its amazing how nice you can make a plant pot look with afew gems dangling from them.

Anyone done anything like this before or have any suggestions.

I was thinking perhaps doing a casket spray with foliage then somehow inserting potted plants along it?
Been away for a few days to my uncles funeral in York. There was lovely tribute, made on a posy pad with african violets in the design. It had clusters of roses and foliage edge..just lovely.
