I love flowers, and never really realised that I actually know the names of quite a few (thanks mum!). None the less I am by no means an expert or even really a novice but I have picked up a few flower tricks along the way especially when it comes to throwing a party without a florist.
My favourite trend, and now confirmed by Martha Stewart, is to arrange flowers all of the same colour palette together, but to limit one type and one colour of flower to each small vessel, and then to sit them all closely together. This works especially well for "supermarket" flowers that are usually looked down upon: think chrysanthemums, baby's breath and carnations. And by eliminating all leaves, packing the blooms in tight bunches and the buds close to the rim of the vessel - you really do have a designer arrangement without the designer price tag.
