Learn how to create this charming, easy arrangement of pink tulips and white roses. It's so much easier than you might think and makes such a wonderful centerpiece or gift!
Cut the stems of your roses, one by one at an angle so that the bud sits in your vase at a diagonal and the bud reaches just above the lip of the vase.
Remove the foliage from roses, as well as any limp leaves from the lower half of the tulips.
Place your roses diagonally across from one another in the vase, saving just a few roses for later.
Cut your tulips 2″ longer than your roses, leaving the leaves intact. Insert inside of the rose lined vase and allow to fall into place.
Fill in with your remaining rose stems, cutting at length to stand straight vs fall to an angle, using the tulip leaves to hold them into place.
Notes
Choose tulips and roses with no yellowing on the stem or leaves.
Tulips will grow in the vase, and they tend to follow the light. That’s perfectly okay! Let them do what they want, the beauty is in the imperfections!
To allow the stems of tulips and stock to take in plenty of water, be sure to cut them at an angle and use clean water.
Recut your stems day and change the water in your vase – this always leads to a longer vase life no matter the bloom!
The smaller the neck of your vase, the less stems you’ll need.
