When summer arrives, it’s a season ripe for celebrations. The sun-drenched days and warm evenings provide a perfect backdrop for weddings, garden parties, and intimate gatherings. If you're looking for the perfect floral arrangement to set the tone, our Kale Garden Party DIY Flower Kit, featuring stunning lisianthus, is here to make your summer event unforgettable. 

This blog will explore why lisianthus is a must-have bloom for your bouquet. Plus, we'll show you how it pairs beautifully with kale, scabiosa, and silver dollar eucalyptus, creating a timeless and elegant arrangement. Whether you’re a bride planning the perfect wedding florals or just someone who loves crafting with flowers, you’re in for a treat. 

Why Lisianthus Makes the Perfect Summer Bloom 

Lisianthus is a bloom that exudes elegance. Its soft, delicate petals mimic the sophistication of roses, but with a charm all its own. Available in a wide range of colors like white, pink, and lavender, lisianthus seamlessly fits into any floral theme. For summer, white lisianthus provides a refreshing and classic touch. 

What makes lisianthus particularly special is its versatility. Its light, airy appearance softens firmer blooms like kale or more structured greenery such as eucalyptus. Additionally, lisianthus holds up exceptionally well in warm summer temperatures, which is essential for fresh and vibrant floral designs. 

Picture this gem in your bouquet. Its delicate ruffles and radiant beauty draw the eye without overshadowing your other blooms.

Kale adds a unique and contemporary twist to your bouquet. With its bold ombre purple hues, kale serves as a striking backdrop to the softer white lisianthus. It offers texture and depth, while its unexpected presence gives your bouquet a modern edge.

Every good bouquet needs greenery, and silver dollar eucalyptus is the perfect choice for this arrangement. Its soft, rounded leaves provide a flowing, organic quality, and its subtle silvery hue ties all the elements together seamlessly. 

Optional Additions 

Ocean song rose and succulents

Looking to personalize your bouquet even further? Consider adding Ocean Song lavender roses. Their soft purple tones highlight the ombre colors of the kale and bring an additional layer of depth and romance to your summer arrangement. For a modern and unexpected touch, consider incorporating Succulents into the bouquet. Their unique textures and muted green tones offer a stunning contrast to the delicate blooms, creating a striking visual balance. Succulents also lend a fresh, contemporary feel, making the arrangement even more memorable.


How to Assemble Your Lisianthus Bouquet 

Whether you're a beginner or an experienced DIY florist, putting together this bouquet is easier than you’d think. Follow these steps for a flawless arrangement and enjoy the process as much as the results! 

Step 1 Organize Your Flowers 

Lay out all the included flowers and greenery from your Kale Garden Party DIY Kit. Trim the stems to your desired length, ensuring each bloom is ready to work with. If you’ve opted for Ocean Song roses, prepare them as well by removing any outer petals and cutting the stems at an angle. 

Step 2 Start with Structure 

Begin with the kale. These larger blooms will create the foundation and serve as the visual anchor of your bouquet. Spread out their placement evenly to ensure balance and symmetry. 

Step 3 Add Lisianthus and Scabiosa 

Once the kale is in place, add your lisianthus and scabiosa. Use the lisianthus to create a soft halo effect around the bouquet, while the scabiosa fills in spaces for a delicate, textured look. 

Step 4 Incorporate Eucalyptus 

Layer in the silver dollar eucalyptus to frame the bouquet. Its cascading leaves provide a natural flow and tie all the elements together, giving your arrangement a professional finish. 

Step 5 Secure and Style 

Once you’re satisfied with your arrangement, secure the stems with floral tape or twine. Wrap the tape tightly but gently to avoid damaging the stems. Complete the look by wrapping a ribbon 

Perfecting the Palette 

If you’re planning a summer wedding or event, the combination of white lisianthus, ombre purple kale, and scabiosa offers a clean, elegant palette. Adding Ocean Song roses brings in a subtle hint of lavender, tying the arrangement together perfectly. This color harmony works well for themes ranging from rustic chic to modern sophistication.
