This Valentine's Day, send L-O-V-E with this DIY!
We’ve got creative tips and instructions to turn your Valentine’s Day bouquet into something truly outstanding – all with a little help from the foliage and flowers in your yard! Common flowers found at the grocery store take on a stunning new look when paired with the beautiful winter foliage of your landscape:
Go for the Green. Red may be the color of Valentine’s Day, but it is foliage in medium to dark greens that make any added blooms really sing.
Pick a Theme. The foliage in your landscape can serve as the inspiration for your DIY bouquet, no matter where you live! Many Encore varieties have medium- to dark-green foliage all year, with some Encore varieties, like Autumn Amethyst, Autumn Princess and Autumn Sundance, showcasing purple to bronzy tinges in fall and winter.
Grab a Grocer’s Bouquet. Whatever florals you find will do. The greenery plays a supporting role, so place those branches behind the flowers. You’ve hit the jackpot if you find baby’s breath of hypericum berries to add contrasting color and texture.
