About this Event
Introduction to Thereaputic Horticulture & Tiger Blossom
(no expereince required)
Experience and learn therapeutic horticulture & Ikebana botanic arranging with Graeme and Aiyana at the beautiful Environmental Nature Center in Newport Beach, CA.
Join us for a unique & nourishing afternoon that blends therapeutic gardening with mindful floral arranging.
We’ll begin with Graeme’s Theraputic Horticulture workshop : a gentle, hands-on introduction to succulent propagation and plant care as a metaphor for our own nervous system healing. Through personal storytelling and guided reflection, Graeme will share how tending to plants became a path toward restoration and connection. You’ll leave this portion of the class with your own potted succulent, grown from a single cutting, and a deeper understanding of how even small acts of care can bring new growth.
Next, Aiyana of Tiger Blossom will guide you through creating a botanical arrangement using Ikebana tools & seasonal blooms. Rooted in the art of Ikebana, Tiger Blossom’s approach is meditative, spacious, and deeply personal ~ each stem placed with intention. You’ll explore the beauty of presence, composition, and allowing nature to lead the way.
What You’ll Experience:
- A therapeutic succulent propagation & potting
- Gentle reflection on the parallels between plant care and self-care
- Mindful floral arranging inspired by Ikebana principles
- Connection with a like-hearted creative community
- Two beautiful creations to take home: your potted succulent & floral arrangement
