Woodland Walk

White glass shows off the richness of autumn flowers and foliage. Flat pink sedum flowerheads contrast shapes with plump globes of deep red dahlias and the papery petals of hydrangea in subtle shades. The vibrant range of hues is offset by the wiggly green leaves of oak, and stark twigs to reinforce the woodland feel.
