Flower ArrangementsGerbera Flower Arrangement in Shallow
Dish
This arrangement has been made using 3 gerberas in a shallow
dish. A fern stem has been bended to give the design an oval-shaped
background.

Plant Materials Needed:
- 3 Gerberas
- Fern stem
- Any green fillers
Other Materials:
- Shallow Dish
- Stem-Holder (frog)
- Accessories - we have used a conch and some birds seated on a
rock
- Ribbon
Directions:
1. Bend the fern stem gently from the center and fix it's ends to
the back of the stem-holder.
2. Trim the stems of gerberas keeping one of the flowers longer
than the other two which need to be kept of the same length. The
longest bloom needs to be of a slightly lesser height than the
bended fern stem.
3. Fix the 3 gerberas in front of the fern stem.
4. Fill the stem-holder with fillers (all trimmed to be of a
height lesser than the shorter gerberas) in a way that the gerberas
seem to be 'growing out' from the thick green fillers.
5. Tie a ribbon to the base of the stem-holder hiding away the
stem-holder completely.
6. Pour water in the dish and place your accessories
half-immersed in water.
