Filler flowers for arrangements

Filler flowers are considered a secondary flower to large focal flowers because they are smaller and fill in the spaces between. For a more dimensional and creative cut flower garden, consider trying filler flowers. Even if you grow just a couple, you'll see how they enhance your arrangements with a delightful diversity.

If you want to have bouquets that really shine, you need three key ingredients: focal flowers, filler flowers, and foliage.

We love making a big beautiful bouquet. To make a truly fantastic bouquet, you need three key elements: focal flowers, secondary flowers, and foliage.

These are the best filler flowers to look for in an attractive flower arrangement!
