Floral Design with Filoli's Emily Saeger

During Niesha Blancas's visit to Filoli Historic House & Garden on June 29, 2020 -- a day originally scheduled for the Slow Flowers Summit to take place -- she captured a series of beautiful images while also filming a time-lapse video of Emily Saeger designing a lush and colorful urn filled with flowers and foliage clipped from the grounds at Filoli.

Emily is deeply involved in tending to Filoli's Cutting Garden, designed as an homage to the early 20th Century plantings at the estate.

We love seeing what Emily has created from the cultivated, gleaned and foraged botanicals.
