This particular design uses a combination of long-lasting Ornithogalum arabicum and blue Muscari bulbs. The Ornithogalum were hand-tied and lean forward in the flute vases to prevent them slipping inside the vase. The Muscari were removed from their plastic pots to expose their roots. The cylinder vases provide a micro-climate and support the flowers and foliage as they emerge.
