Lilac Love

Nothing spells elegance like the soft mauve and purple hues of a romantic lilac and rose bouquet. Couple it with satin ribbon and pearls, and you have something truly special! The variegated lilac at this time of year lends a subtle, sweet fragrance to the bunch. Blue moon roses enhance this with their typical old worlde rose scent, the same scent you remember from those bygone days of home grown roses in your mums (or grandmothers) front garden bed, or the local park down the road (for me it was New Farm Park in Newstead, Brisbane). Berzillia adds a touch of texture, and magnolia leaves finish the look with bronze highlights and dark green, glossy leaves.

Colours like this are not often common at any particular time of year, certainly not with the same softness the lilac lends to the overall look. Rule #1: If you see lilac, or you are getting married when lilac is around…snap it up quick, and enjoy it’s fragrance and delightful abundance for up to a week!
