Gerberas and Alstroemerias Basket

The arrangement in the basket is built around vivid red roses and mini gerberas, which form its main colour centre. Alstroemerias, chrysanthemums and a single stargazer lily round it out, and the green filler adds lightness between the blooms.

The deep red of the roses and gerberas alternates with the lighter alstroemerias, while chrysanthemums are commonly paired with them, so the basket looks full without feeling crowded.

Remove the anthers of the stargazer lily once the flower has opened, since the pollen strongly stains fabric and petals.

The basket suits a visit, a birthday or a thank-you, as it creates a cheerful and welcoming mood.
