Winter Flowers

Glorious Winter Flower Arrangements found at the AStore.

With the final season of the year upon us, creating winter flower arrangements can banish the gloom of winter and bring the look and fragrant smell of the season into your home.  You can celebrate the winter flower season with the creation of a beautiful bouquet that works with the majesty of this time of year.  Creating glorious winter flower arrangements with flowers that truly speak of fall and winter such as lush, extravagant roses and simple carnations, which when pure white are composed in a tight floral arrangement, centerpiece or bouquet, look like the softest collection of snowflakes.

There are no real color restrictions for the winter flowers, though colors lean more toward deep greens, reds, mauves, and the bright winter whites.  Mingling your favorite blooms with stems of rose hips, berries, interesting branches and autumn leaves, as well as green flowers and foliage; can greatly intensify your winter flower arrangements.  Using herbs in your bouquets and centerpieces also provide a comfortable atmosphere as well as a sweet fragrance.

Additional winter flowers that will bring both color and scent to your floral arrangements are:

• Snapdragons – their stalks contain many flowers and are excellent in your winter arrangements.  Their colors range from white to red and shades of blue.
• Stock – An old favorite as they are available in single and double-flowered varieties, both with a delightful scent.
• Cineraria - A large, daisy-like flower in shades of blue, pink and red and they make excellent cut flowers to go in your winter flower creations.
• Larkspur - Another beautiful winter flower that also blooms in blue, white or red.
• Iceland Poppies – These produce beautiful crepe-paper-like petals in many colorful shades.
• Bachelor’s button – Colors of blue, pink, wine red or white flowers are excellent mixed within your winter flower arrangements, but also uniquely arranged by themselves in a vase.
• Fairy Primrose - Stalks 15-18 inches high and their blossoms appear in tiers of white, pink, rose red and lavender shades.
