Bring color and fragrance into your home with a beautiful summer bouquet
Summer in a vase! The sweet floral fragrance of a colorful summer bouquet adds an immediate touch of summer to your home.
Cheerful color palette
You can combine flowers in a wide variety of colors for a summer bouquet. For example, create an eye-catching combination by mixing cheerful pink calla lilies (Zantedeschia) or dahlias in different colors with subtly colored lilies (Lilium). Of course, you can always choose one color family such as pink, red, or orange flowers. The possibilities are endless! You can also give a natural color palette a summer vibe by adding a bright color accent.
The sweet scent of summer
Include one or more fragrant flowers in your summer bouquet and enhance that lovely summer atmosphere in your home. If you like sweet floral scents, the iris is the perfect addition to your summer bouquet. For those who prefer a bit more spice, scented lilies are a must.
Flowers, flowers everywhere!
A summer bouquet is always beautifully presented in a glass vase, which is also handy for checking whether the flowers still have enough clean water. You could opt for a ceramic vase but be sure to change the water regularly. For a bit of variety, why not divide your bouquet between several smaller vases? Place them together as a floral collection or scatter them around the room. Or throughout your entire house!
Tips & ideas
- Going to a garden party? Bring a cheerful bouquet of summer flowers and immediately add to the party atmosphere!
- Another great option is a bouquet with one type of flower in different colors, for example only gladioli. Or dahlias!
- Don’t put your flowers next to the fruit bowl. Ripening fruit emits ethylene, a gas that causes premature wilting. After all, you’ll want to enjoy your flowers for as long as possible!
