This particular gorgeous sunny bloom directly above is the Dis Bud, it is one of the approximately 30 species of Chrysanthemum's available, and it's the largest of the species available in Australia at around 15cm in diameter. Available in May, once cut these beauties will last around 5 days, and are available in most colours you can imagine. $$$$$

With relatively long stems, the blooms when open are around 7 - 10cm in diameter and once cut will last up to 2 weeks, so these blooms are not only great for bouquets but perfect for arrangements you want to continue to enjoy for more than just on the day. $$$$$.

Blooming Wonderful

Repeatedly we've found that one of the biggest challenges for our clients (& for the Florists who need to break the news to them) is a knowledge of what bloom's are in season when, what what they look like and what colours the blooms are available in without having been subjected to photoshop or colour filters, and also what blooms will fit into the budget. So to make the process a little easier we're going to post regularly the best of the seasonal blooms that are available in Australia (with many thanks to the amazing Sally of Poppies Florist for her contributions to this endeavour!)
