Autumn flowers have peeped their beautiful heads into our floral workshops and we couldn’t be happier! Like any artists and designers we love to get our hands on fresh new materials, and a change of season allows us to play, play, play with an array of different flowers, foliage and branches.
The type of flowers you will find in Australia during autumn are:
Pineapple Lilies
These fabulous tropical flowers are absolutely beautiful on their own in a simple vase, or arranged with other lovelies such as Oriental and Asiatic lilies. Lush, unique and fun, all in one.
Cockscomb (Celosia)
Velvety and textural, these amazing ‘brain-like’ autumn flowers are part of the amaranth family and come in the most divine colours ranging from super hot pink, pale apricot, blood red, gold and more.
Tulips
Gosh, who doesn’t like tulips? As the weather cools with the arrival of autumn, there is nothing better than bunches of tulips adding their flair to a flower arrangement.
Sedum ‘Autumn Joy’
Sedum is a hardy, flowering plant that requires low water and also makes a gorgeous cut flower. Its ‘broccoli’ like heads composed of tightly clustered star-shaped flowers gradually tone from a pretty pale pink to a rich copper over its flowering season.
David Austin Roses
Coveted by brides all over the world, a simple bunch of David Austin roses is all one needs to feel good. Their scent takes you to heaven. Tuck some privet berry and sedum into a bouquet of David Austin roses and voila, perfection.
Delphinium
Pale blue, white, cornflower blue, lilac, deep dark purple… the colours of these tall frilly beauties is something poets write about.
Chrysanthemums
Orange, red, yellow, apricot, pink, white… you name it, the chrysanthemum comes in it. These fluffy balls of fabulousness are so much fun and wonderfully long lasting.
Belladonna Lilies
For a fleeting period of autumn the highly fragrant belladonna lily shoots from the ground on a slender stem and flashes its pink or white petals to the world.
Privet Berry
Deep dark blue-black privet berries add depth and texture to bouquets of autumn flowers. Love!
We could go on. And on. And on and on. The abundance of amazing autumn flowers at our fingertips is inspiring and exciting. Choose one of our ‘Mystery Autumn Bouquets’ and you get the best of whatever we can get our hands on at the markets on the day of your delivery.
Embrace the season and enjoy these darling blooms while they are at their best!
