As the weather begins to turn and the deciduous trees start to show bud swell, we can’t help but think about all the wonderful spring blooms that will soon be available and abundant, ready to be included in your next gift bouquet, whether for home or for delivery across Sydney. Here, we look at five seasonal Poho favourites that have us excited about floral gifting in spring. Poho Flowers is proud of its longstanding reputation and deep connection to the local community. With our shop providing contemporary floral arrangements and delivering Sydney-wide, we are a shop delivering Sydney-wide and an online flower shop delivering Sydney, making our innovative designs accessible to all.
1: Ranunculus
Also known as Persian Buttercups, these beautiful spring blooms come in an array of vibrant colours, along with some stunning variegated hybrid varieties. Slow to open and with a great vase life of 5–10 days (often longer in cooler areas of the home), their delicate, ruffled petals gradually unfurl to reveal a soft, intricate centre. At Poho, we love using these seasonal beauties in both vase and oasis table arrangements. They’re also a wonderful seasonal substitute for roses in a gift bouquet. Keep an eye out for the white varieties with fine pink or purple striping as they evolve and change while blooming. Our commitment to sourcing the freshest flowers means we work closely with local growers and further afield to ensure every arrangement is of the highest quality and nature-inspired.
2: Sweet Pea
The fragrance of sweet peas is as soft and sweet as the bloom itself. These delicate-looking climbers are more robust than they appear. Their tendril-like forms add shape and movement to any gift bouquet or table centrepiece, and they remain a seasonal favourite for bridal bouquets. At Poho, we often use sweet peas en masse, curating complementary colour palettes and bundling numerous bunches together for the perfect seasonal bouquet. A florist favourite is ‘First Love’, a pale blush-nude tone that pairs beautifully with almost everything. The Poho team, with their skills and experience, are dedicated to providing unique contemporary arrangements for any occasion, including office weddings and events, as well as home office weddings, ensuring every bouquet is tailored to your needs.
3: Anemone
While the name might conjure visions of a tropical reef, the anemone flower is a true seasonal standout. Starting as a simple green stem with a closed, paper-thin bloom, they come to life in water, opening into delicate, oversized petals with a dramatic, deep black centre. At Poho, we’ve been lucky to secure a few of the incredible double anemones, the first picks of the season. We often split a bunch and include a single stem as a standout feature in a gift bouquet. Our creative team bring a diverse set of skills and experience to each brief, ensuring every brief, bouquet and occasion is met with innovative and contemporary floral arrangements.
4: Hellebore
A florist's favourite for both events and seasonal bouquets, these hardy perennials bloom from late winter through spring. With their gentle nodding form, hellebores bring shape and movement to any bouquet, table arrangement, or bridal design. At Poho, we regularly use the hardy green variety, a fresh lime tone that lifts any arrangement and provides a strong, long-lasting base. We also adore the many delicate whites, blush tones, mauves, and near-blacks they come in. For something special, use them en masse in a bathroom or by the bedside. Hellebores are perfect for floral arrangements for home and arrangements for home office, showcasing their versatility for both residential and professional settings.
5: Poppies
Poppies are pure joy. These remarkable flowers begin their season in the depths of winter and carry through well into spring. With bold, bright colours and playful movement, they bring instant happiness to any space. A florist favourite, poppies are stunning en masse or used sparingly as accent stems in mixed arrangements. We pick them up at almost every market when in season, both in tight bud form and as full, open blooms. Surprisingly robust, they hold beautifully once open, despite their delicate appearance. Bees love them too, and when the sun is out, you’ll often find a few buzzing around our in-store display. We are proud to provide large with contemporary and large arrangements, offering large, contemporary floral arrangements for any occasion, including weddings and events.
