How to finish a bridal bouquet – Tips and advice straight from the classroom
Flowers and well being
Smelling floral scents puts us in a good mood and makes us feel less anxious. I love sweet pea for this reason!
When choosing the colour scheme for your flowers, colours that are close to each on the colour wheel promote calmness. Colours on opposing sides of the colour wheel energise us!
What flowers do you have around you today? I’ve got some coral coloured carnations!
Join us at Bloom College for one of our workshops to learn more about colour theory, the power of flowers and how they contribute to our well being.

Bloom Spotlight: Black Bat Flower
BLOOM SPOTLIGHT: Have you ever seen a Black Bat flower?!
Tacca Chantrieri or the Black Bat flower is native to the tropical forests of Southeast Asia. It has wide black petals that can reach up to 30cm in width and long black whiskers.
The Black Bat flower seems to be somewhat of an enigma to horticulturalists who seem unable to explain why their blooms are so showy when they don’t seem to be used for pollination. After the plant blooms, it will develop seed pods and is capable of setting seed without pollinators.
They bloom towards the end of summer and can produce 6-12 stems in a single season.
The blooms will not last very long once cut, and therefore are not great for arrangements however they can be grown in a pot and no doubt would be a great conversation piece for visitors!

Chamomile
I’m absolutely crazy for these “wildflower” bouquets! Perfect for a country style or relaxed wedding vibe.⠀ ⠀
It’s so interesting to see Baby’s Breath (Gypsophila or Gyp) come back into fashion but I am loving the use of Chamomile as well! Not only does it make a tasty bed time tea but the flowers are super cute and have a long vase life.⠀
Allium Giganteum
