SUNFLOWER & ASTER HAND-TIED BOUQUET

September 19, 2012

by Michael Daniels

Using all of this week’s Featured Flowers you can make a vibrant, simple hand-tied bouquet. Use 7-10 stems of each Featured Flower. Start by arranging your bouquet with the Sunflowers. Hold them in your hand at least a flower width’s apart from each other. The next step is to fill in the negative spaces with Matsumoto Asters, then add the Monte Casino Asters. Finish by adding the Solidago.

Tie off the bottom with a ribbon or raffia, and dress it up with a colorful sleeve or Kraft paper. Lovely!
