Pretty in pink

 Last weekend I went to Kew Gardens and was so inspired by the tropical plants I saw in the Princess of Wales Conservatory that I designed some prints for my Spoonflower shop.


The spikey plant is called an Australian Bottlebrush. The colour drew me to it but once you look up close you can see that each spike has a tiny white bobble on the end.


My version of the Australian Bottlebrush has been very simplified and I chose to draw it from above, to create a geometric pattern. I've added a few green leaves and there's a loose stripe in the background.


Tightly-packed chrysanthemums create a sea of vibrant pink.


Bright pink hibiscus flowers sit on a bed of bright green foliage.
