Entries in a whimsical class where each exhibitor was asked to embellish a lighthouse with dried botanical materials for the GCA's 2024 Annual Meeting flower show.

Botanical ArtsCrafted with Dried Plants

Botanical Arts is an optional division in a GCA flower show. These crowd-favorite exhibits showcase craftsmanship, excellence in design, and are constructed of all dried plant material.

Botanical art pieces are meticulously crafted from dried plant materials with novices and experienced artists preparing entries according to a specific flower show’s requirements. Entries for a flower show are created according to unique parameters set by the show and they will fall within one of four official categories: Botanical Jewelry, Botanical Embellishment, Botanical Couture, and Botanical Forms.

The gallery below will grow over time to showcase a wide variety of winning entries from shows across the country.
