Tips for Easter Flower Arrangements

If you are designing your own Easter flower arrangements, create colourful displays by mixing different flowers together like tulips, roses, ranunculus, and lilies together. The varied textures, colour, and shapes make vibrant springtime bouquets.

• Display Easter flowers in pretty woven baskets lined with plastic or moss to create a festive presentation. Weave in decorative touches like colourful Easter eggs, fresh greenery, or sheer ribbons.
• Incorporate the colour of Easter with shades like light yellow, lavender, pink, white, and other pastel hues. These softer tones evoke images of baby animals, sweet treats, and springtime.
• Send the gift of Easter plants like mini rose bushes, orchids, lilies, or hyacinths for added symbolism and longer enjoyment. Recipients can display these flowering plants each Easter.
