Red flowers that always prove popular
When celebrating occasions like Christmas, red flowers are a must. These blooms can be arranged alone, with dark green foliage or even together with greenery and white flowers. You can also add gold accessories to emphasize the festive theme. When choosing red blooms for Christmas, it’s good to remember that you don’t have to limit yourself to just one type of flower. You can use different types of flowers to create a bouquet with various shades of red.
Luxurious roses
Roses are undoubtedly the most popular red flowers and it’s not hard to see why. They last a long time, don’t release pollen into the air and are beautiful beyond words. The luxurious red roses can be enjoyed alone or you can add red carnations and even some stargazer lilies to the bouquet.
Cheerful carnations
Carnations are also very popular, especially during the winter. They have abundant looking red flowers and their wavy appearance means they add fantastic texture to any bouquet. As mentioned above, carnations can be paired with various flowers such as roses and lilies.
Tropical anthuriums
Anthuriums are tropical flowers and the heart-shaped flower bracts have a characteristic shiny appearance. This flower symbolizes happiness and abundance, making it a great addition to any home. Display this flower or potted plant in your home or send it to a loved one for Christmas.
Bright daisies
Gerbera daisies are known for their vibrant colours and bold appearance. These red flowers have a beautiful, open appearance and can also look great on their own or together with other blooms such as roses or even carnations.
Zinnias and dahlias
Zinnias and dahlias are loved for their full, highly textured appearance. Both are available in red and work particularly well in mixed bouquets. Whether you want to create a red and white bouquet or a red arrangement made up of different types of red flowers, you can be sure that one of the two will fit perfectly.
Delicate blooms
If you’re looking for red flowers with a delicate touch, you can’t go wrong with tulips and peonies. Both of these floral beauties will make your home even more festive and will also make wonderful gifts. If your florist has these types of blooms in winter, you can be sure that they will be well received.
With all these blooms to choose from, it’s much easier to find red flowers for your Christmas bouquet. With so many options, you can also shop based on your budget and personal needs.
