All,
Joanne wants me to build some English Boxes for our show this
Saturday. The construction is not very difficult, but I have some
questions that are not really answered by the Judges Handbook.
Do
the blooms rest on the top of the English box or are they held
above the
surface. (The JH says "English Boxes are designed as a
means of displaying
collections of single flowers without stem,
foliage or the presence of
buds.")
So if they are to be held above the surface (which makes sense
so
that the falls are displayed naturally) what do the stems typically
sit in? Is there water in what they sit in?
Any help (or designs if
you have them) will be greatly
appreciated.
Thanks
John
