Truc, from Da Lat city, is studying flower arranging at the institute. She will return to Vietnam after the course.

The competition was themed “Wild Flowers for a Farmer’s Wedding” in honour of the Australian Year of the Farmer. In the final round, there were 103 candidates from 13 schools and colleges.

Truc used white and green colours with a touch of pink in her arrangement. She created strips of brown leaves around the basket in order to increase simplicity, suitable for a farmer’s wedding and to stress the beauty of wild flowers in Australia.
