The Lilacs & Long Days Large Flowers • Floristry Tutorial

Welcome back to Blooms & Bicycles!🪻
In this tutorial, we bring to you the Lilacs & Long Days Large Letterbox Flowers!

The design is part of our monthly subscription service which brings to you a carefully curated selection of seasonal flowers, which you can use to create stunning arrangements that are as sustainable as they are beautiful.

The collection takes inspiration from the abundances of long sweeping blooms, both trailing and tall, that make their appearance at the latter part of spring, releasing their sweet delicate perfumes while swaying in the warm breeze. In a spectacular array of different shapes, sizes, textures and colours, no two flower stems are the same. With a range of soft varying shades of pinks, corals, purples and violet blues, they all share the same lilac undertone, perfectly lending themselves to one another.

Delivered in completely plastic-free, compostable packaging materials, our letterbox flowers will return to the earth just as much as the plant-based cellophane, cardboard, and vegetable-based transport gel. You can browse our collections here: https://www.bloomsbicycles.com/letter...
