I do take my camera every class, but I don't upload them to the computer every time. I'll probably upload them Sunday. I'm not sure what we're doing Saturday. We do have a syllabus but it's not always crystal clear exactly what. I know we have a test Saturday! It also says on the syllabus, 'new design forms, the Asian influence in design, interpretive Ikebana, the European influence in design, landscape design, vertical floral design, parallel design."

Yes, they provide all the flowers. However, I think that for the interpretive design we're going to make, we can bring things from home, from our own garden, etc.

That first pic I posted up above has the rice flower in it. There are 3 flowers in there - roses, stock, and rice flower. From a distance, rice flower looks similar to a sedum in shape and color (mine was dyed). But when you get close, it's very delicate, like queen anne's lace. Let's see if I can find a pic online somewhere.... Ah, there are a bunch. Google it for more pics, but here is one that looks the closest to what I had.
