Choosing Silk Flowers for Custom Designed ArrangementsThe wonderful thing about floral design is that there are no hard and fast rules in choosing silk flowers for your floral arrangement. The objective is creating a piece that you enjoy and can admire for years to come. Most floral arrangements are not seasonal and reflect an "all-seasons" style and color scheme. However, if you're looking for something more seasonal or are interested in how shapes and textures vary by season, you've come to the right place to learn about choosing silk flowers. Often times focal floral arrangements will be rotated by season and, since many flowers only bloom during certain times of the year, you will need to know what style of flower is appropriate when. Certain colors are seasonal as well unless you have decorated your home with that specific color and then there is no seasonality to the design - for example, a pink room will look beautiful will pink tulips or daisies all year round. The following is a guideline as to what flowers are appropriate during a specific season: Peonies Hydrangeas favorite Mums Roses All Dried Flowers Magnolias favorite Most grasses Lillies - darker colors Scabiosa Ranaculas Gerber daisies - darker colors Orchids favorite Many more...
Poinsettias Gerber Daisies favorite Mums Roses Carnations Glittered stems favorite Holiday stems Sunflowers Pine greenery Roses - darker colors Many more...

The variety of flowers we have available is endless. You can view our picture gallery of the most popular silk flower stems and for more detailed information on each stem. Again, there are no real rules to follow in choosing silk flowers for custom designed arrangements...if you like a particular flower it can be used year round or only during certain seasons...it's all up to you.
