Roses, Alstroemeria and Freesias

The bouquet combines seven roses, seven alstroemerias and seven freesias, complemented by gypsophila, eucalyptus and green fillers. Gypsophila forms a cloud of tiny white flowers on finely branched stems around the blooms. Eucalyptus adds airiness, colour and fragrance at the same time.

White freesias soften the pink tones of the roses and alstroemerias, creating a delicate atmosphere. The bouquet suits birthdays or a thank-you, when it should feel gentle and friendly.

Remove faded alstroemerias and freesias regularly, so the remaining buds can open. Place the vase away from direct sunlight, draughts and ripening fruit, which releases ethylene and speeds up wilting. Strip leaves from stems that would sit below the waterline, so the water stays clean.
