Bringing blooms indoors: it’s what every home needs


FLOWERS IN THE HOUSE

Tulips
By Emma Harris
Tulips are one of a very few varieties
of flowers that continue to grow once
cut. This means they add something
unique to a bouquet, as you never
quite know how it will change shape
over the course of a few days. There
is a real beauty in the evolution of an
arrangement, especially if you use the
particularly flamboyant parrot tulips,
which open to give a blousy display
as they stretch away from a vase.
