well branches are separate so get branches and then pick a darker flower to put in the cp with it

I'm using flowering branches for my centerpieces. And if I remember correctly my florist told met that flowering branches (the ones that have the little flowers that sparingly grow out of them -not orchids though) usually end up spouting either pink, lavenders or white....lighter colors. Cause I wanted red or bright purple and she said that doesn't happen. So i'm getting white and using candles along w/it.

So yeah, just get plain branches or those twisty reeds (I don't know the real name) and get flowers mixed in in your colors.

thats the thing though i dunno what flowers would look like these in that color. i want a small flower like these how they are small bunched flowers alone 1 stem...

i know i could just ask the florist but i'm afraid to go in like i don't know anything about flowers bc i don't want anyone to take advantage of that
