Ariella Chezar describes her inspiration for this arrangement, “I am a fool for flowers that shade from one color to another in a single blossom. A good example of this is the marvelous black-eyed anemone, pictured here, that shades from pale pink to purple to white… Once I determined this would be my focal flower, I searched for a worthy complement, finding it in the pinkish-white blossoms and leggy vines of Clematis armandii.”
