When using hydrangea centerpieces, you have a lot of different options for what you can do with them. Making unique centerpieces out of the big pom pom blooms is not difficult at all, you just often need to plan ahead. Like most flowers, hydrangeas don’t bloom all the time in any one area, but you can get them at other areas simply by purchasing ahead of time and getting them shipped from where they are blooming to where you want them to be. When you do that, you may need to be careful that you specify what type of color you want. That will get you in trouble if you don’t because hydrangeas come in a lot of colors.
Not only do they come in a lot of different colors,they also grow differently depending on how much acid or alkaline is in the soil. In that way, they’re like a living litmus test. If you really want hydrangeas and you can’t find them fresh, you can also use dried hydrangeas. This will give you a huge range of colors because dried hydrangeas can be painted to match any color scheme you have. If you can’t find a florist who has fresh hydrangeas, that may be your best option. You may also be able to find nurseries that will give you hydrangeas, but nurseries can be a bit tricky to find.
Nurseries and floral warehouses can be really fun to purchase from, but you will have to arrange the flowers yourself. That can be easy, or it can cause you a lot of trouble if you don’t know what you are doing. Florists often have many tricks up their sleeves, like stem wire, green floral sponge, floral tape and things like that. If you know a florist, then you can sometimes get them to do stuff for free or for cheap if you supply the flowers yourself. It depends on the florist, where you live, how busy they are, and other things like that.
