The Flowers: Dolchetto roses, amnesia roses, clematis, English lilac, Dr fleming Peony, alcamilla, gelder rose, mixed herbs of rosemary, thyme and oregano.

The Inspiration: I prefer to use a combination of interesting foliage to dress arrangements. This usually involves layering textures, vibrant colours and scents.  The scent from the herbs and lilac is absolutely divine. Creating a bouquet is not based on any set pattern or method – it’s instinctive. To me it looks like a piece of art.
