Wild Flower Arrangements
While walking through the woods, you may marvel at the wildflowers, but bringing home cut wildflowers from your walk in the woods may be impractical. A florist can use all the necessary skills and materials to create an arrangement of wild flowers that help bring nature indoors.
It is true that flowers in a florist's shop aren't really cut from the wild, but they do give that impression. A wild flower design usually comprises delicate small and fragile blossoms such as alstroemeria, freesia, yarrow, or crocosmia, enhanced by the slender stems of the scabiosa or lisianthus. Filler flowers such as Queen Anne's lace, Monte Casino asters, or Misty Blue limonium give depth and texture while asparagus ferns and bear grass add an ethereal touch.
You can make a wildflower arrangement in either a vase or basket.
