Spring Flowers
-
Create your bouquet using a variety of spring flowers, or choose one flower and use it throughout the bouquet. Seasonal flowers for springtime include hyacinths, tulips, roses, peonies, cherry blossoms, orchids, sweet peas and dahlias, among others. Visit a florist to get a close look at springtime flowers, which will help you make a decision on which ones you want to use in your bouquet.
Pink
-
Pink is a common color seen in the spring. This is particularly true around Easter, when you often see pink Easter eggs, candy and clothing color schemes. Embellish your bouquet with an assortment of different pink flowers, or select a single pink flower. Try roses or tulips in pink and add a contrasting colored ribbon, such as white, to hold the bouquet together and help the pink stand out.
-
White
-
White flowers often seen in the springtime include lilies, peonies, roses and daisies. If you want to create a bouquet of large flowers, you'll want to go with something along the lines of a lily or rose-sized flower. Daisies, or flowers about the size of daisies, are ideal if you want to use small flowers in your bouquet. Use white accents like ribbons, beads and baby's breath.
Yellow
-
Yellow is another prominent color seen during the spring months. Arrange your bouquet around a yellow color scheme, including flowers, ribbons, feathers or anything else yellow you want to include in your bouquet. Daffodils, tulips and roses are all common yellow springtime flowers.
