color lab
Posy Laboratory's Color Lab is all about the vibrant world of colors that you can find in our Mojave Garden. We've got everything covered in the stunning hues of the rainbow. And the best part? The garden is bursting with life all year round, ensuring there's always something colorful happening.
Behind the scenes, we dive deep into the rich palette of our and explore how different colors can transform any floral design to evoke emotions and create a sense of joy and wonder. Our experiments include mixing and matching colors and textures to create breathtaking floral arrangements and testing how their cut flowers hold up in the desert heat.
Whether you're a flower enthusiast, a bride- or groom-to-be, an aspiring designer, or simply someone who loves the beauty of nature, you'll find plenty of inspiration here.
