From the Flower Shop: Blousy Hydrangeas
17th Aug 2023
As August ramps up into action (by which we mean the return of sunshine) our stores are similarly radiant with a riot of colour. High summer brings about those wonderfully zingy tones - tangerines zinnias, hot pink helenium, and scarlet-red dahlias. Stealing our attention for the time being are the most wonderfully fluffy hydrangeas. It’s not hard to miss them, these spherical blooms are larger than life - with their spectrum of hues only making it even easier to spot. Think sky-blue, candy pink, and regal purple.
Taking a starring role in many a wedding urn, sumptuous bouquet, and towering vase - the hydrangea can really do it all. Subtlety - plump for green and whites. Summer brights - hello baby blue and lavender. Sultry boho - dusky raspberry is spot on. Behind the scenes, ask any florist and on of their favourite signature move will be to wield a cloud of these beauties over one shoulder and have a good old strut.
Undeniably, en masse they are quite the sight, but one or two stems can make a chic splash. Head into a Moyses store and you’ll be met with a rainbow of choice - the perfect weekend pick-me-up whatever the weather.
