Tips on How to Select the Right Flowers for Bouquets
Creating a beautiful and elegant bouquet begins with choosing the right flowers. The following guides can assist you in making this process easier:
- Petal and leaf firmness is essential. You can stroke the petals of the flower with your fingers by placing them along the stem. The leaves must appear green and healthy. Avoid flowers with drooping leaves and with holes as well. This indicates that there is a presence of insects. If you see a dull brownish color near the edges of the petals that appear faded, you must reject them.
- Choose flowers that are available during the season. Picking in-season flowers is a good idea for your bouquet since they are fresher, have high availability, and are more affordable.
- Pick flowers that are just beginning to bloom. A fully opened flower is now at its peak and would last less time than a flower whose buds have just begun to open. Those flowers that have not yet bloomed will slowly begin to open within 3 days.
