Choosing greenery for your flower arrangement<\/a> is actually very important! The greenery you choose can add to your style and create texture and balance in your arrangement. With so many options it\u2019s hard to know which is right for your arrangement so we\u2019ve broken down some styles and offered our most popular greenery<\/a> for each style. Read on to find out all bout greenery!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Boho\u00a0 <\/strong><\/h2>\n

With any type of boho theme (modern, vintage, etc.), our most popular greenery is undoubtedly eucalyptus<\/a>. Any type of eucalyptus. Seeded and silver dollar are the most used greeneries among a variety of categories but really bring the boho feels. Its hanging branches give it a bit of romance. The soft pale green shade also works with a variety of color palettes such as cream, white, burgundy, blue, and peach. We love eucalyptus just as much as our brides and it is generally one of the first greeneries we recommend. Eucalyptus is truly a timeless beauty but there are other boho greenery we recommend such as olive branch<\/a>, sword fern<\/a>, and magnolia tips<\/a>. These are all quintessential for a boho theme.<\/p>\n

Classic <\/strong><\/h2>\n

For a classic bouquet say of roses<\/a>, carnations<\/a>, stock<\/a>, hydrangeas<\/a>, and calla lilies<\/a>, you\u2019ll want to choose a more definitive green such as leather leaf fern<\/a>, myrtle<\/a> for taller arrangements, lemon leaf<\/a> for a fresh feel, pittosporum<\/a> for an easy-to-use filler green, and of course Israeli ruscu<\/a>s for a flawless feel.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Lush & Romantic<\/strong><\/h2>\n

There are lots of greenery that lends itself to a soft and romantic palette but here are our favorites; Tree fern<\/a> and plumosus fern<\/a>. These are ideal for a dreamy, fairytale arrangement. Variegated pittosporum<\/a>, a classic green with a romantic twist. The pale green color and ivory edges complete a soft color palette. Dusty miller<\/a> is ideal for a lush & romantic vibe. Lastly, Ivy. Weather green<\/a> or variegated<\/a>, hanging ivy gives a soft and delicate sense to a sprawling centerpiece.<\/p>\n

Sleek & Modern<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Sleek greenery is easy to spot. It\u2019s usually darker in color and has a color block effect to it. Greens such as aspidistra<\/a>, bear grass<\/a>, cocculus<\/a>, lily grass<\/a>, ti leaves<\/a>, and podocarpus are all examples of a sleek and modern arrangement.<\/p>\n

Tropical<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Lastly, tropical greens. This category boasts some beauties such as palmetto<\/a>, monstera<\/a>, tepee<\/a>, Xanadu<\/a>, and Leucadendron<\/a>. Any of these find a perfect pair with tropical blooms and orchids<\/a> alike.<\/p>\n
