Summer flower

Considered to be one of the most popular flowers in the world, second to roses, of course, chrysanthemums are so much more than a padding flower in a bouquet. This fluffy, vibrant bloom speaks volumes, with special meanings depending on the colour you choose, oh and they’re revered by royalty. We’d say, they’re pretty special.

There are over 150 varieties of this stunning flower to choose from, whether you prefer the bushy, fanned out types or spider blooms featuring spindly petals with curled ends you’ll find something that speaks to you. With a name that translates literally to gold flower, from the Greek words ‘chryos’ and ‘anthemon’ it’s no wonder this bloom deserves a place in your top 10.
