Fruition

There is so much beauty in flowers that have gone ‘past it’. ‘Past what?’ I ask myself sometimes, especially when I see such a flower as this. It is certainly not past being admired for its gorgeous tones and textures. There is a richness I see, in the more limited colour range. The tones that are there seem intensified and the textures emerging in the drying leaves, petals and seed heads feature much more strongly in the whole effect. We both loved this plant when we saw it and it reminded me at once of a box that Steven turned years ago, entitled “Fruition”. Below are photos of that box, so you can see what I mean. His post, with information about the piece is here https://stevenkennard.com/blog/archives/1289.
