Another calla lily question:

Do you guys think that dark red (black) mini calla lilies and mauve mini calla lilies go together? Or is this too much of a clash of colors?

Pretty much! Flowers were the first thing I did I was limited because of the time of year so I am just doing roses. It is a major decision because they are in all your pictures! You will figure something out that you love

Alina, the colors will not clash at all. THey will be fine together. I have seen shades of pink done, red and lavendar, I am sure that will look beautiful.

Re: Another calla lily question:

Shamma, so you also think that I should go with mauve callas, berries and apple color closed roses?

I will show the bk to fh tonight

Thank you for sharing the opinion.

Im not sure but I think the mauve calla lillies sometimes look very orange and may clash with your dresses.

Stef, are you talking about this color - this bright orange? They could be like that or is this another color?

Re: Another calla lily question:

Im pretty sure the colors vary depending upon the crop. Just ask your florist about the possibilities of not getting exactly what you want. It would $uck to do a whole color scheme on mauve and end up with bright pink or orange.

I think the first photo is a mix of mauve and mango while the second boquet is all mauve.

I had the black beauties and they did look quite dark in the B/W but that didnt bother me. They were so gorgeous in person.

Stef, thank you. I'll keep it in mind as I search for florists

Alina: Do you want the mini callas or the big ones?

Re: Another calla lily question:

I want the mini's, I am too short for the big ones (5'1'). According to fake version of the big ones that a florish showed us, they look huge and could only work with a taller person.

Ok..i think the minis are available in more colors (dont ask me why that is). I think the minis have both an orange, pink AND a mauve color so thats good in terms of variety.

I think the black beauties mini ones are a bit more expensive than the others for some reason (another unexplained floral mystery).
