Modern Victorian Posy
Extract from Paula Pryke: Wedding Flowers • By Paula Pryke • Published by Jacqui SmallAbout
Paula Pryke Wedding Flowers
the vIctorIan posy was first popular in the mid nineteenth century, often backed with lace. Traditionally, concentric circles of pink, blue and lilac flowers would have been wired into a neat round posy.
The circles represent eternity and suggest everlasting love.
I like to make my Victorian posies without any wires and I have to say spring is my preferred season to make them, with muscari and ranunculus being two of my favoured flower varieties for this design.
