I’ve have enjoyed using spring flowers in bouquets and planted arrangements for a couple of months now. The amazing little bulbs burst into life and give us a plethora of gorgeous colours to work with. They are particularly cheery when the weather can’t make its mind up.
I can never decide which my favourite spring flower is as they are all so delicious. From the palest pink anemones to the zestiest orange tulips. Literally hundreds of colours and varieties mean there is a spring flower for everyone. I am rather partial to parrot tulips, they transform from small, pale flowers with crinkled petals to huge ruffley beauties that almost look as though they have been painted. Although I still cannot choose my favourite parrot tulip, as there are so many beautiful colours.
We are very lucky to have a lot of British spring flowers available to use. We can get British narcissi, daffodils, tulips, anemones, ranunculus, iris, lily of the valley and snow drops. Arrangements of spring plants can be equally delightful. We do a lot of spring arrangements for Mothers Day gifts. They are easy to look after and provide a longer lasting display of colour.
