Mr. Darcy and your bouquet

You don’t need many of these flowers in blush tones to create an opulent, super-romantic bouquet. Summer in a vase, the sun shining through your window and an infinite amount of delicate petals stop you from going outdoors. You’d rather sit indoors dreaming for a little while longer. Mr. Darcy, this is your cue.

Beautifully round

This bouquet looks best in a round shape. Find a vase in an attractive pastel colour or made of frosted glass. Fill it with water, add some flower food and arrange your bouquet. You create a romantic base by flanking the extravagant peonies with delicate lisianthus, style icon Vanda, small-flowered camomile and scented friesia. The campanula and snapdragon together with the ornamental grass create some airiness. Finally the gerbera lends a sober note, because whilst romance is beautiful someone still needs to keep their thinking head on.
