Alstroemerias and Chrysanthemums

The bouquet combines chrysanthemums and carnations with alstroemerias, waxflower and greenery. Chrysanthemums and carnations make up most of the bouquet, while alstroemerias with waxflower and greenery add finer structure and volume.

The colours are pink and white, with darker carnations as an accent, so the bouquet looks fresh and full. It suits a birthday gift or a visit.

Each alstroemeria stem carries several trumpet-shaped flowers with patterned petals, which open gradually, so the bouquet keeps developing. Waxflower has small waxy flowers on needle-like twigs and a gently aromatic scent. When placing the bouquet in a vase, remove the leaves from the greenery stems that would sit below the waterline, so the water stays clean.
