    Hello Bees!

    I am a DIY bride looking for bouquet advice. I am considering either green spider mums or green button mum bouquets. Button mums seem to be a much more vibrant green, but I'm wondering how many blooms I would need to make a bridesmaid bouquet. Did anyone use only spider mums or only button mums? How many blooms did you use per bouquet?

    Buttom mums are much smaller than spider mums.  You could probably get away with as little as 5 blooms per bouquet with the spider mums depending how full you want them to be.  I used the button mums mixed in with the bridesmaid's flowers and I think I bought 12 packages for their bouquets and all our centrepieces.

    If that bouquet you pictured is what you have in mind, I cout 16 heads just in that portion of the bouquet, which I say is maybe 1/10 of the bouqet.. Depending how many heads there are per stem (I figured about 3-4 per stem), you could need about 40-50 stems?
