Garlic scapes are the soft stems and flower buds of the hardneck garlic plant. At first they grow straight but then later curl up into coils. They are edible and are very good in a stir-fry dish! We saw packets of garlic scapes in the supermarket and immediately the curling stems drew our attention. Definitely ikebana material!

We matched it with some wide-leaf weeds from the backyard. We also added a splash of orange paint on the leaves.

Here is the whole arrangement.

I hope you like it. —Miyako
