Spider Daisies For Wonderful Bouquets

Wednesday, April 21st, 2010

One of my favorite flowers is the Gerbera Daisy.  The Spider Daisy is actually a species of the Gerbera.  This large flower, with its delicate spiky appearance comes in a huge variety of colors, making it ideal for floral designs of all types.  I often use Spider Daises, which are also called Spider Mums,  in my bouquets but they are great for floral arrangements, and floral accessories.

Spiky as it may appear, the petals are soft and delicate.

Our own Spider Daisy Bouquet features Green and Creme  Spiders with creme embellishments and small white daisies.  We’ve added creme and gold wire mesh and created a sleek modern design.  Available at Bohemian Garden.
