Bouquet of daisy chrysanthemums

Such a bouquet is appropriate for a bachelorette party or for giving to the bride's friends: it looks festive but doesn't steal the spotlight. It also works for a warm congratulations to a loved one—for a birthday or simply on a day when you want to say something nice. Chrysanthemums are versatile: their white color pairs with any outfit and decor, while the daisy-like shape adds youthfulness and freshness to the arrangement.

To keep cut flowers in the vase longer, trim the stems at an angle and change the water every couple of days, refreshing the cut at the same time. Keep the vase away from direct sunlight, drafts, and fruit—this way the blooms will stay firm.
