Best Floral Colors for Flower Arrangements
For excitement in a floral arrangement or bouquet or centerpiece, it's best to use complementary colors. These colors are across from each other on the color wheel. That would include green or blue and orange, red or pink and green, and yellow and blue or purple. To create a warm, friendly, comfortable look in your flower arrangements, you can achieve this by using colors that are next to each other on the color wheel. These are also called analogous colors. That would be blue and green, or pink and orange.
For calm, peaceful arrangements in bouquets, use a mix of shades of one color. This is called a monochromatic look. That would be variations of pink, yellow, or blue or any other color. Retailers can pack the most punch in their shops by arranging flowers according to color, not by type. J Schwanke, AAF, AISD, PFCI, says arranging flowers in this way in the shop makes it easier for customers to make their decisions based on color.
Chocolate brown is the trending hot color today, Schwanke says. Chocolate is a safe color and is often selected during times when people feel unsettled or insecure or uncertain.
Schwanke says that a popular color combination in the immediate future is yellow, black and gray with a touch of red. Schwanke recommends staying away from adding white into colorful bouquets. He says that when you add white to a combination of color combination you dilute the effect of the color.
