“How did he know…?”
“About your vowes?”
“No, that I like tulips.”
-Claire Underwood
Spring is the time of rebirth and resurrection. 2015 has dealt much of the United States a pretty hard winter, so this spring will hold a special theme of rebirth.
Tulips are Claire Underwood’s favorite flower. Whether you love her, or hate her, her taste in flowers is outstanding. The theme of tulips running through the Netflix series, House of Cards is very interesting to speculate on.
The tulips Claire loves so dearly are perhaps the last vestige of hope she holds onto as her and her husband spiral downward in to the darkness of Washington politics. Tulips may also hold her key to redemption, for sins that rack her subconscious. It seems tulips are an emotional life raft which Claire is barely able to hold on to.
Our need for nature in the smart phone dominated world, is driving aspects of style, fashion and culture to reach back to a simpler time; at least for the parts of our lives that don’t require charging.
Flowers are straightforward and uncomplicated, and tulips capture the moment like no other flower.
Flower design trends right now are all about the “Field to Vase” esthetic. Natural form, an earthy feel and an un-manicured look are hot. Think lovely tulips reaching from the bouquet untethered by gravity, blue iris mirroring the deep blue of the sky after spring rain and greens that could have been just picked from freshly budded branches.
The iris is a flower very close to people’s hearts. The fact they grow across the nation, perennially rising in spring, makes them almost like part of the family. What was your mom’s favorite flower? I‘d bet you it wasn’t a rose or carnation, it was likely an iris, planted in her own yard.
