Subiaco transformed into floral wonderland for Mother's Day
Mums were the stars but flowers stole the show in Subiaco this weekend, where art, petals and plenty of love spilled into the streets for a blooming beautiful Mother's Day. Subi Blooms X Gather transformed roads and shop fronts into living canvas of colour, creativity and culture on Sunday, where visitors of all ages honoured the most important women in their lives. The floral wonderland consisted of a trail of 15 breathtaking art installations, all tied together under one theme: 'Roots to Bloom', which invited artists to explore heritage, culture and the hidden natural world and beautifully reflected the essence of Mother's Day – honouring where we come from and how we grow. The festival, which first burst into bloom on Friday and ran the entire weekend, was held in collaboration with Gather: A Floral Community led by renowned florists Rebecca Const and Lara Rose.
