Summer is often preferred over winter for a number of reasons. Not only is the weather warmer, but there are also so many more beautiful flowers in bloom. If you are looking for the perfect summer flower bouquets for smaller parts of your home or even for your office, you are in lucky. There are so many different options and, along with them, an almost endless variety of combinations. Here are some important points to help you choose the best blooms.

Pick or buy

When you are looking for a summer flower bouquet for your home, you can either pick them from your garden or you could place an order with your local or online florist. If you have a large enough garden with a variety of fresh blooms, you can take an early morning walk and look around your garden. Make sure that you take a bucket with fresh water along so that you can place the cut stems in it and keep them hydrated. If you do not have too many blooms growing on your property, you can always place an order with your favourite florist.

Summer colours

Another important factor to consider is the colour scheme of your summer flower arrangement. Summer is known for being the warmest season of the year and this is why we usually decorate with warm and bright colours. Bright shades or red, orange, yellow and contrasting purple will certainly brighten any room. If you are looking for small bouquets that will not take up too much space, you could display small to medium-sized flowers. Examples include roses, carnations, tulips and gerbera daisies.

Budget-friendly

While we all love fresh blooms, we are not always able to spend a small fortune on a summer flower arrangement. The good news is that there are some affordable options that will help you decorate just about your whole home. Florists will offer bouquets in different sizes so you can choose the smallest options. Alternatively, you can select a larger bouquet and split it up into multiple vases. If you ever buy flowers and one or more of the stems are damaged, you can always trim them and create mini bouquets to place in a small corner or on a small side table.

Smaller areas of your home like your bathroom, entrance hall and den could use some colour. If you are looking for something that’s longer-lasting than a bouquet of cut stems, you could always opt for a potted plant. Suitable plants for small spaces include cacti and succulents because they are easy to care for and they grow slowly enough that you will not need to repot them for quite some time.
