Greenery to Brighten Rooms

Outside the birds are chirping and the daffodils are blooming, which means spring is here. Bring the season inside with some greenery and florals. Whether it’s a potted plant or a bouquet of flowers in a vase, a bit of spring in the home will brighten any space. Bring Spring In

▼ Go Green First When putting together arrangements, we usually start will your greenery first for texture. Greenery is typically less expensive than flowers and will help fill in a large vase. Then add in your flowers for color. You can stick with one color or go for a variety.

▲ Room Additions We like to display flower arrangements in the main focal areas of the home (entry console, coffee table or dining table). You can make an arrangement for each space. We also like to make a small arrangement for the powder room or bathroom that guests will be using. It's a great way to make them feel welcome.

We love the open market European feel of the flower stand. • Pigment, with three locations in San Diego, is one of our favorite places for all things related to plants.
