Eyebright 84/12 Vase

New Zealand’s Eyebright flowers swoop down from the neck of this design like myriad white flying saucers holding purple-veins. In this way, and set against a midnight-blue background, the two-lipped corolla, its lower, tube-like portion being enclosed in a green calyx, tipped with four teeth, holds an extra-terrestrial aura. The exciting form does not stop there, the upper lip is two-lobed and arches over the stamens forming a shelter-like structure and if that is not enough, the lower lip is spreading and three-lobed, each lobe being notched. Nicola’s eye observed more, and ignites the design with the flower’s yellow, dwarf star-like streaks of colour, which emphasize the central lobe and purple 'honey guides' on both upper and lower lips, before disappearing to create a New Zealand odyssey.
