Create a Beautiful Flower Arrangement With Roses and Greens

Add More Color With Filler Flowers
Red Rose Filler Flowers
Insert stems of filler flowers between the roses.

Our filler flower choice is stock, which is a full, lush, long-lasting stem available in many colors from white to fuschia. Each stem has lots of blooms, so it fills the empty spots in the arrangement.

Other good choices for a filler flower are daisies, mums, baby's breath, alstromeria, small carnations, or sprigs of hydrangea blooms.

We finished off our arrangement with extra small flowers for added texture and size.
