Tropical & Exotic Flowers
Petals of Boca Raton Florist offers a variety of exotic or tropical flowers. These flower types are native to the Florida landscape and are therefore referred to as tropical flowers to Floridians. They are common to the eyes of Floridians, so although most consider them exotic, they are typical and common to us.
With this in mind, Petals of Boca infuses elements of the Orient and Old Bombay to bring an exotic feel to the arrangement. The result of this this technique can be best described as a "British Colonial/Hemingway" look.
FEATURES OF TROPICAL FLOWER ARRANGEMENTS:
Brightly Colored with tones of reds, mangos, oranges and purples
Large tropical leaves are used in these pieces to bring more of tropical feel
They normally carry a one-sided, asymetrical presentation (there's a front of the arrangement and all flowers are placed in such a way that they face forward). This design technique allows the arrangement to appear larger with a grand statement.
Tropical arrangements are masculine and rigid in style. They lack movement and a "flowery softness" that are common to most garden arrangements. There are not an intimate arrangement, but more of a formal presentation that is most appropriate as a lobby piece or reception desk piece.
Due to the masculine look, tropical arrangements are a perfect gift for men.
