Adding Filler Flowers to a Rose Bouquet

Video Transcript

"O'kay the last step of this arrangement is to add a filler flower and what we are going to use today is Heather. Heather is a nice lined flower but it looks gorgeous with the pink roses. When you are selecting a filler flower you are going to want something that does enhance the color of the rose so again we are using Heather and we strip off all the foliage that will go under the water line and this has a very woody stem so what you can do is just break it like that and it will actually take up more water that way. We are going to use the Heather for the filler gaps and just enhance the shape of the arrangement. And usually three to five pieces is enough. We are going to do five and this is how you add the filler flower."
