The SACWA Penola Terra Rossa branch had the pleasure of having guest local artist Jill Eckermann attend their monthly meeting.

The talented Mrs Eckermann showed the group how to create striking floral decorations without flowers.

At this time of the year when there are very few flowers around it is possible to create wonderful arrangements with succulents.

She even used fig cuttings with figs attached to enhance the lower aeonium cover and ivy, creating a beautiful final design.

This was followed by the planning of the wall mural opening on May 21 at 2pm.
