Citrus Class

Citrus Class 2010

CITRUS CLASS
Saturday, December 18th
1:00-4:00pm
$250

Our first citrus class was so dope, we could hardly wait a whole year to do it again... December brings beautiful lush citrus fruit from Florida; what a better way to shake the winter's chill than with kumquats, clementines, tangerines and limes. We'll be pairing these lovelies with other seasonal winter flowers like ranunculus, nerine lillies, amaryllis, cedar, acacia, and poppies.

The class will take place in the Saipua studio at 147 Van Dyke Street in Red Hook, Brooklyn.

Succulents & Begonias

Succulents and Begonias
Saturday, January 22
1:00-4:00 pm
$250

Winter offers us a measly dearth of foliage and greenery - so we often find ourselves in the greenhouse, cutting from heirloom begonias and succulents to ritz up our arrangements. The silvery and textured greens these two very different species share makes an ideal backdrop for the delicate winter blooms we love - amaryllis, ranunculus, anemones, etc. The class will learn about growing indoor plants for cutting, and each student will create their own winter masterpiece.

The class meets at Nicolette's studio in Greenpoint, Brooklyn.

Orchids!

orchid class

Orchids!

Sunday, January 9th
1:00-4:00pm
$250

In this class we'll liberate orchids from the contemporary/minimalist style where these beauties have been pigeon-holed for years. Along with other season material, we will highlight several different varieties of orchids (Phals, mokara, lady slippers, etc) to creating sumptuous, heady arrangements in the classic romantic style with a hothouse exotic twist. This class is going to be the best ever.
