taining green food coloring

veins of the flowers and buds
giving a dainty green line thru
the white iris. Another unique
and original arrangement was
white Iris in a low, white con
tainer using rather large oyster
shells vertically at the base of
the stems. Another interesting
and well done arrangement was
made of iris in shades of autumn
browns with dried tips; one with
lovely color harmony was in a
copper pitcher with two tones
of brown iris and English
