Figure D
Inspire your garden gifts with wrapping that completes the theme:

  • Using a ribbon, tie a small cutting of ivy and fragrant paperwhite flowers for a graceful finishing touch to your gift (figure A).
  • Consider the powerful punch of contrasting colors. These bright yellow chrysanthemums add drama to the royal blue wrapping paper (figure B).
  • For a romantic touch, place a simple rosebud in the center of a bow (figure C).
  • Wrap the entire gift in a banana leaf and raffia or any other broad-leaved foliage from your garden for an exotic, natural look (figure D). Banana leaves are available at Asian and Latin markets. Just handle the delicate leaves with extra care as you wrap your gift.
