Spring is imminent - the perfect opportunity to celebrate with not one, but three Spring flowers on the Flower Agenda: ranunculus, hyacinth and daffodil.
The origin of ranunculus, hyacinth and daffodil
Ranunculus originally comes all the way from Central Asia. It travelled through many exotic places before arriving in Europe, where it was given its official name. The hyacinth arrived in Europe in around 1560 from Turkey, Syria and Lebanon. Daffodils grow wild in meadows, forests and rocky places in Western Europe.

Colours and shapes of ranunculus, hyacinth and daffodil
Ranunculus comes in white, yellow, orange, red, pink and purple. Hyacinths are waiting for you at the florist’s in white, red, yellow, pink, purple, orange, green or multiple colours per flower. Obviously bright yellow is the most familiar colour for daffodils, but there are also beautiful combinations with white or salmon pink. And did you know that daffodils come in various variations? With leaves, without leaves, with large trumpets and small, strongly scented and unscented.

Bouquet recipe with Spring flowers
Close your eyes and imagine the season of Spring. Which colours do you use? To really capture the feeling of Spring in a vase, it’s a good idea to use colours like orange, blue, purple and white. With so much colour, the vase doesn’t need much else. A tall, cylindrical vase is contemporary, puts the spotlight on the flowers, and offers enough room for the large number of stems.
