5 Flower Fillers That’ll Make Your Arrangements Pop
Oct 12, 2021 
What are your thoughts on decorative flower fillers? Do you see them as that calefare starred in your favourite drama series – unimportant but always present? Well, we bet most of you do! But the truth is – they, too, have an essential role to play when it comes to floristry. And in fact, no arrangements are ever complete without fillers. Why so?
With their own distinct charm, character and texture, fillers serve as the backbone of gorgeous bouquets, and are what set one bouquet apart from another. While they don’t take centre stage, they have the power to make or break a design. This is precisely why fillers deserve just as much attention as the focal flowers when designing arrangements.
Now, how do you choose the suitable filler? We’d say it all boils down to your colour theme and what you are trying to achieve with the final output. But if you need a little inspiration to get the creative juices flowing, take a look at our top 6 favourites below.
1. Eucalyptus
Eucalyptus – a versatile foliage that works with both cool and warm floral palettes.
Flaunting an invigorating shade of green with slight silvery-blue tinge and interesting variations of shape, eucalyptus gives life, depth and a sense of movement to your flower arrangement. Not to mention, when cut-fresh, eucalyptus is pretty long-lasting – it has a vase life of up to 28 days. Moreover, they can also be preserved and treasured indefinitely.

2. Baby’s Breath
While you can curate a breathtaking bouquet with just baby's breath flowers alone, these delicate and soft flowers are incredibly popular fillers too. Florists love them for their soft and dainty look – which can flawlessly complement the focal flowers without looking too overpowering.
Baby’s breath comes in a variety of tinted colours – which means they leave plenty of room for creative interpretations.
