When to choose a mixed bouquet

If you do not know which flowers someone likes, a mixed bouquet is safer than a single variety: there is something in it for everyone. It suits birthdays, name days and thank-yous. Pastel mixes of pink, white and cream feel gentle and elegant, while bold combinations of orange, fuchsia and yellow bring energy. If you know they adore roses, a rose bouquet is the surer bet.

Caring for a mixed bouquet

Each variety in the bouquet has its own lifespan. When the first flowers start to fade, take them out, trim the rest and put them back in fresh water. The bouquet gets smaller but lasts several more days. If there are gerberas, use less water, as their stems rot easily. Greenery such as eucalyptus or pistacia usually outlives the flowers, so you can keep it in the vase longer. If you like arrangements that change with the time of year, look at seasonal bouquets.

Frequently asked questions

How do I pick colors for a mixed bouquet?

Think about the person and the room it will stand in. Bright modern flats suit whites and greens, warm interiors suit peach and pink, and people who love color will enjoy the full palette.

Is a mixed bouquet a good choice for a man?

Yes. For men, florists often go for deeper colors, plenty of greenery and touches of branches, grasses or dried elements. Plenty of men enjoy receiving flowers, even if they rarely say so.
