The Bountiful Spring Bouquet

Learn how to create your own spring display!

To complete Chef Bingham’s spring table, he asked floral designer Chris Norwood, vice president of Tipton & Hurst, to create a memorable centerpiece. This clever arrangement incorporates spring blooms, Brussels sprouts and radishes for a truly unique display that even Peter Cottontail will love.

You will need:

• Clear or glass vase

• Caged florist foam, (large enough to cover vase opening)

• Floral wire and picks

• Carrots

• Radishes

• Brussels sprouts

• Spring flowers and ivy
