No Leaves Needed, But I Love Green!

The shades of green are refreshing, fresh, and wonderful, don't you think?

When we think of "green as the main color" in weddings, we often imagine "natural-themed floral arrangements and bouquets with lots of leaves (greens)"...

But that's not quite what I mean.

✅ I want to enjoy the color green elegantly!

✅ I feel like adding leaves somehow reduces the feminine touch, and I don't like that.

There must be others who feel the same way.

In fact, one of my friends said, "I don’t want too many leaves, as it makes it feel overly green, so please just a little in my bouquet!"

(But in the end, it seemed there were more leaves than she had imagined, and she said, "I wish I had gone without them...")

For those who feel similarly, here’s a tip when ordering flowers:

You can create green floral arrangements without using leaves! ♩

Instead of leaves, you can add green with flowers and stems.

Bundling a lot of leaves can give a casual feel, but if the flowers themselves are green, you can enjoy the color green without ruining the elegant atmosphere ♡

“Are there such things as green flowers?”

You might be thinking, but actually, there are quite a few! ♡

In this article, I’ll introduce green flowers that you might want to use for wedding bouquets and venue arrangements.

If you want to add a green touch while maintaining an elegant atmosphere, be sure to check this out ♩

Green Flower ① Viburnum

The fluffy, round shape of Viburnum is charming.

The small flowers bloom densely, and from afar, they look like a ball.

It's also known as Snowball.

The flower language is "Playfulness" and "Vows" ♡

A bouquet made solely of Viburnum is rare and impressive.

Next is the classic flower, Hydrangea.

Hydrangeas come in various colors like pink, purple, blue, and of course, green! ♩

Green hydrangeas have a soft, pale hue, giving a gentle and ephemeral impression.

Characterized by their vibrant, bright green color and delicate petals.

Green Flower ④ Mum (Chrysanthemum)

Mums also have green color variations.

The most well-known variety in wedding scenes is the Ping Pong Mum.

This round-shaped Mum is often used in traditional Japanese bridal bouquets.

Of course, mixing it as an accent in a clutch bouquet for Western-style attire is stylish too! ♩

It's also a familiar green flower found in Nikolai Bergmann's flower boxes.

Since the flower shape varies by variety, I want to use a green Mum with a shape I like ♡

This one is a variety called Shamrock. It's large and has a strong presence, so it can take center stage in a bouquet.

Green Flower ⑤ Anemone

The trendy flower, Anemone, which is usually associated with white and purple, also has a pale green variety.

A single green Anemone can stand out quite a bit ♡

Green Flower ⑥ Carnation

Carnations also come in green.

Dense green carnations with delicate petals exude elegance and grace ♡

This is also a standard green flower used in Nikolai Bergmann's boxes.

The overall flower language for carnations is "Innocent and Deep Love."

Single green carnations have the flower language of "Healing," "Collective Beauty," and "Impressions."

Green Flower ⑦ Lisianthus

Lisianthus, a popular wedding flower, comes in green too.

The light and gentle green hue matches perfectly with pastel-colored bouquets! ♡

Its fluttery petals are cute, and it's perfect for those who love a soft and natural atmosphere.

Green Flower ⑧ Green Bell

Many might have just heard of the flower called "Green Bell."

While the petals are white, the swollen calyx part is green! ♡

It has a slender, thin stem with round flowers, making it adorable.

If you peek the Green Bell between other flowers, it could create a charming natural wedding bouquet.

Here’s a bouquet combining white roses and Green Bells.

The elegance of the bouquet is enhanced by the natural feel of the Green Bells, resulting in a pure, refined bouquet.

Green Flower ⑨ Éclair

Finally, let me introduce the flower Éclair.

This flower has petals that are a light green and a unique shape.

The bud of Éclair looks like a tiny Brussels sprout.

Interestingly, Éclair is a type of spray rose!

The name Éclair means "Lightning" in French.

It's said to be named for the burst of opening blooms that resemble a striking appearance.

The natural green color of Éclair is rare among roses.

It’s a flower that can achieve both natural and elegant! ♡
