Don’t get me wrong…I like flowers!  But I also like flowers when they are surrounded by non-floral pieces.  Wheatgrass, cabbage, fern, leaves…they all add extra depth and texture to bouquets and centerpieces.

Here are some fab examples of how to incorporate flora elements that are not flowers!

Other faves are succulents, curly willow, bamboo and berries!

Also, make sure you take advantage of whatever items are in season!  It will save you some bucks.
