Description

Floral ornaments inspired by the shapes of Rosa englenteria (possibly Rosa eglanteria, a.k.a. Rosa rubiginosa. The appearance of the flower seems consistent with the design), Rosa moschata alba, Libanotis, Cistus monspeliensis subsp. ledon (a species of rockrose), and Cnicus benedictus (St. Benedict’s thistle).
