Wedding season is here! We have seen many trends and wedding themes to combine the most beautiful floral arrangements with. From our own knowledge and expertise in flower breeding and selection, we are happy to share some flowers that could be a great choice for the arrangement of your dreams.
Earthy shades
Nature tones are back and we see a lot of earthy shades like brown, green, yellow and peach being incorporated into bridal flowers. Where nude colours have been trendy for a while now, this trend is taking the next step and is all about connecting to mother nature. Make floral arrangements in this trend that extra bit more exciting with textures and scent. Carnations for example will be a great fit for this.
Some of our suggestions:
Pantone recently launched the Colour of the Year 2024: PANTONE 13-1023 Peach Fuzz! “PANTONE 13-1023 Peach Fuzz captures our desire to nurture ourselves and others. It’s a velvety gentle peach thone whose all-embracing spirit enriches mind, body, and sole”, says PANTONE®.
Pantone is a company that publishes colour codes and announces a colour as its annual colour each year, based on fashion, social events, cinema, and more. As HilverdaFlorist, we are looking forward to a year of Peach Fuzz and are happy to share a selection of our colour matching varieties with you.
Standard Carnation Peach Wonder
It looks like Peach Wonder was made especially for this trend! However, this flower has been part of the Standard Carnation range for some time. The large, ruffled flowers with multiple petals create depth in this unique colour. Like the colour, the classic yet modern Carnations themselves effortlessly bridge the gap between youthful and timeless. Exactly as Pantone intended with the colour.
In a world full of flowers, there are certain varieties that capture our attention with their outstanding beauty and irresistible charm. One such variety is Sparkz® Solomio: a unique Dianthus variety that is bound to dazzle anyone who sees it. Solomio® varieties are developed by HilverdaFlorist, being a testament to their commitment to excellence and innovation within the floral industry.
Get to know Sparkz® Solomio
The Solomio® Series endears with blushing, rounded flower petals in a ray of soft to bright colour tones. The flowers of Solomio® varieties appear high on the stems and are composed of petals that emerge horizontally to create an almost flat surface. The result is a truly surprising flower, which is easy for florists to work with and immediately shows colour in a bouquet.
Flowers bring beauty and joy into our lives. They boost our mood, creativity and symbolize love, gratitude and celebration. By prolonging the life of flowers, we can continue to enjoy their elegance for a longer period of time. But, how do we keep our beautiful bouquets alive as long as possible? In this article, we give you tips to enjoy your flowers longer! Follow these steps and extend the life of your bouquet.
First things first: clean vase
To eliminate the possibility of bacteria in your vase, you should first clean it. After cleaning, make sure to rinse your vase thoroughly.
Choose the right vase
Make sure to offer your flowers the support they might need. For lighter, more fragile flowers, use a taller vase. Do you have heavy blooms with a strong stem like Gerbera? You can place them in a lower vase and let them shine!
Cut the stems
Cutting the stems of your flowers (approx. 0.5 inch) allows them to absorb more water. Be sure to cut them at an angle so that they can continue to absorb water at the bottom of the vase. Recutting the stems each few days will repeat this process. Don’t forget to make sure your knife or scissors are clean.
