Flowers

I am so lost with different kinds of flowers out there - the only kind I can identify really are roses. Can you ladies post pics of you cp/boks and tell me what flowers are in them?

TIA

Aug07OFCbride: I love your flowers so much. They were totally my inspiration when I was picking my flowers this weekend. Except instead of blue I picked lilac.

Re: Flowers

You can see my floral samples in my album (done by Verbena). In those there are black magic roses. circus roses (those are the yellow/red roses), mango calla lillies, green hydrangea, green hanging amarranthus (the hanging flowers), red hypericum berries and red peonies. I LOVE flowers & have a pretty thorough knowledge of them so please FM me if you have any questions!! Even if you're not going for the look I am, I can suggest some!! It's one of my favorite parts to the wedding!!

it's true that peonies are only in season for one or two months at most and it usually starts in may. however, a good florist should be able to recommend other flowers that will give you the same, full look. i know there is some version of a rose (i think) out there that looks very similar to peonies so definitely talk it out with your florist!
