As i'm starting to plan my garden for the year, i want to plant some plants that make good garlands for samall deities. I've used marigolds alot, but they tend to be a bit too big, although one year i was able to get a special extra dwarf variety (orange boy) that worked quite well. Geranimums also work quite well either a petals or whole flowers. I prefer to use the flowers whole or whole petals as i find the folded petals tend to look too angular (i posted a coupple of my attempts in my gallery) I also posted some pics from ISKCON Boston's site that have really nice garlands on the utsav deities. Does anyone have any suggestions for plants that make good garlands for small deities. Also, i've noticed people using ribbon in thier garlands (ingluenced by New Vraj Dham), this looks like it would work well for small deities, i'll have to try it some time.
