Yesterday kicked off our week-long series on Unstructured Bouquets. In case you missed it, you can view the first post here. You can also find great example photos on our dedicated Pinterest board “The Future is Unstructured” – we will be adding photos featuring each spotlight ingredient day by day.
Today’s Ingredient: Garden Roses
Garden roses have been popular for a few years now, and their popularity is still growing. With more and more varieties added every year, the combinations are endless. The versatility of a good garden rose is astounding; you can dress them up or dress them down, and in the case of an unstructured bouquet they add to the romance of a bouquet picked fresh from your own garden. In addition, they are a great substitute for peony as they are available year round.
Here’s a look at some amazing uses of garden roses in unstructured bouquets and arrangements:

Recap: Silver Dollar Eucalyptus
As you learned in Day 1, the unstructured bouquet is not a trend to turn a blind eye to! More and more brides are looking to this design inspiration to complete their big day, so much so that not only are their bouquets unstructured, but the entire ceremony and reception décor evoke a feeling or relaxed, homemade country florals.
Our first ingredient was the Silver Dollar Ecualyptus – a key component that is becoming more and more popular in the artfully messy world. You can snag some Silver Dollar Eucalyptus on dvflora.com by searching G1048:
