Besides the fact that there are many different colors, there are also different cultivars available. A beautiful flower for every bouquet. Hydrangea also have many symbolic meanings. The most commonly used is "gratitude".

How do you get started with the Hydrangea? Our arranger Tanja van Bijlevelt(@natuurlijkgemaakt) is happy to show you. She chose a number of greens again this month that go perfectly with the impressive Hydrangea.

ARALIA

As a sturdy base for the bouquet, Tanja chose Aralia. The leaf is widely used as the size of a bouquet. As shown in the examples. Aralia leaves are available all year round. The dark color combines beautifully with the colors of the Hydrangea.

EUCALYPTUS

There are an awful lot of different varieties of Eucalyptus available. Tanja chose Populus and Cinerea in combination with the Hydrangea flowers. Cinerea can be recognized by its gray color. The round leaf runs around the stem. An ideal green to have sticking out between the flowers. Populus also has grayish leaves. the green is a nice filler for the bouquet.

PITTOSPORUM RALPHI

Light on the inside, dark on the outside, the leaves of Pittosporum Ralphi are incredibly fun to watch. The leaf, thanks to the two colors, gives a playful effect. Tanja used the leaf in a mourning arrangement. The green subtly stands out between the flowers. Watch our video to get started yourself.

SENECIO

The light-colored, unusually shaped Senecio leaf gives an exclusive look. Combined with the pastel-colored hydrangea flowers, it is a party in the vase. Whether you use the leaf in a wreath or in a bouquet, the leaf remains incredibly beautiful!

ECHEVERIA

The succulent is available in a variety of colors. The Echeveria has sturdy leaves. The ideal thing about Echeveria is that the greenery almost does not decay. The green survives heat and drought by storing water in the leaves.
