How to make an all foliage design using tropical leaves Strelitzia and palm

Ingredients large Strelitzia leaves, palm leaf, monstera, rhubarb flowers
Low dish, pin holders / kenzan as the mechanic

After visiting the botanic gardens for the Sakura festival I was able to bring home these large Strelitzia leaves and palm but what to do with them?

The Strelitzia will dry into wonderful shapes, but before that I wanted to use them fresh. Many people comment that they like a lot of our videos with just the greenery in, before the flowers so today’s video is focusing on just these leaves.
To get variety then we can place them at different angles to show just how nice they are when you glimpse the profile or back of the leaf. The rhubarb flowers just add that contrast and lightness to create a focal area.

We have used pinholder or kenzan for this design and they are a great addition to your floral art store.
