What Flowers Are in a Wildflower Bouquet? A Guide for Bloggers & Buyers

If you’re wondering what flowers are in a wildflower bouquet, you’re in luck—this guide breaks it down!

 

1. What Is a Wildflower Bouquet?


A wildflower bouquet embraces the charm of nature with a diverse mix of blooms typically found in meadows, gardens, or grocery store bunches. Unlike perfectly manicured arrangements, these are natural, playful, and often seasonal.

2. Popular Wildflower Blooms


Here are some common and visually striking choices:
 • Sunflowers, Zinnias, Cosmos, and Bachelor’s Buttons (Cornflowers) — vibrant annuals that bring bold color and texture.
 • Daisies, Sweet Peas and Gerbera Daisies — add cheer and a touch of nostalgia.
 • Snapdragons, Delphiniums, Lisianthus, Ranunculus — give variation in height and depth.
 • Chamomile, Scabiosa, Statice, Solidago (goldenrod), Billy Balls, Feverfew — smaller wild blooms and textural accents.

3. The Role of Specialty & Fillers 

Wildflower bouquets depend on filler flowers and greenery to frame and enhance focal blooms. Recommended filler types include:
 • Eucalyptus, Rosmary, Ammi (Queen Anne’s Lace), Salal, Ruscus, Baby’s Breath — they add volume, texture, and structure.
