    I am making my own bouquets and centerpieces.  I need help identifying the greens in this bouquet.  I know the flowers are cala lilies, roses, and spray roses (I think).  What are the rest?  I love the look of this bouquet.  The only thing I could change is the colors to match my wedding.

     

    Thanks bees!

    I think some of it's hydrangea but I could be wrong. You could probably bring it to a florist or the guy in the garden section of Home Depot & he can tell you though.

    I think it looks like Bupleurum Green Flower. See the pic on fiftyflowers.com:

    Hello, Miss Skinner!  There are two green elements in this bouquet: bupleurum and a touch of snowball viburnum.  Snoball viburnum is very seasonal.  I was just at a floral wholesaler, where they were $25/bunch, wholesale(!), imported from the Netherlands.  But in summer they're available from local growers, and much more affordable.  Good luck!

    Definitely looks like some green hydrangea, roses, and calla lillies are the oblong light brown ones, I think.

    miss.skinner - if you're in Bethesda,  you might want to go to Potomac Wholesaler and check some things out.  They should be able to identify the flowers.  http://www.flowerwholesale.com

    The clustery stuff could be either hydrangea or viburnum - depending on how you use it, they can look very similar.
