The world of colors

Bouquets look particularly harmonious when a basic color is combined with subtle nuances. Those who prefer a bolder look can combine several bright colors.

The proportions

In classic bouquets, all the flowers are usually the same length. To give a bouquet that special something, the flower shapes can be varied, and the height of the flowers can also be varied. For example, combine elongated panicles like delphiniums with ball-shaped, compact blooms like dahlias and delicate cosmos blossoms. Clematis, ivy, or Virginia creeper trailing from the bouquet adds a playful touch.

The correct order: What comes when?

Simply place the flowers in the vase one at a time, finding the perfect position for each one. Lush blooms, such as hydrangeas, should always be placed at the edge to avoid being crushed and to show off their best. Grasses such as feather grass or diamond grass are a lovely addition to natural bouquets. They are always added last to the arrangement and often add a little visual flair. Rotate the bouquet frequently while tying it to achieve a more even look.

Filling: leaves or not?

You can add volume to your bouquet with decorative foliage. Hosta leaves are ideal for this, or, for those who prefer a more colorful look, the red leaves of Heuchera. If you find the leaves too much, simply trim them all off the stems. This adds lightness to the bouquet, making it more delicate and allowing the different blooms to stand out more.

Great idea

Complement bouquets with aromatic herbs such as sage, lavender, thyme, rosemary, or mint. They provide a wonderfully spicy scent.

Keep your distance

Every now and then, take a few steps back from your little work of art and check whether your bouquet has any unsightly gaps, whether the proportions are right or whether it needs to be trimmed a little shorter.

Sometimes less is more

The narrower the vase, the fewer flowers are needed. Tall, narrow vases also show off single or very few flowers particularly well. However, the longest stem should not be more than one and a half times the height of the vase.
