I had so many questions about how it was effected after you made your post and the article helped explain a lot. I'd never heard about the Flower Carpet til your post, so thank YOU!

You're welcome, and the article you posted was very interesting! It reminded me of the Rose Parade on New Year's Day in Pasadena. All the floats are covered with flowers and organic matter. It's amazing to see up close.

Yes! Rose Parade is a terrific example! When working with such 'fragile' and time limited materials, I'm amazed how well synchronized and co-operative the process has to be. 'Art' brings people together and photographs can prove humans still CAN work together for worthwhile uplifting goals.
