White roses and rich greens

White roses contrast with the greenery, which frames them and lets their pale colour stand out. The combination of white and green gives the bouquet a calm, understated appearance. The bouquet is suitable for congratulations and as a gesture on personal occasions. Cut roses are grown as large-flowered varieties and spray roses; spray roses carry several flowers on one stem. Before putting the bouquet in a vase, remove any leaves from the greenery's stems that would sit below the waterline, as they quickly spoil the water.
