Secret Tips to Styling Sunflowers

Follow these fast, easy tips for a beautiful spring bouquet.

GET IT TOGETHER
For a surprisingly sophisticated-looking arrangement, cut stems to different lengths and align them at the bottom, then secure with a length of garden wire (you can cheat with a ponytail band too) before sinking them into a vase. Add a few strands of bear grass, if desired.

FLORAL NOTE
Not all blossoms need to be blowsy and full; somewhat unopened blooms add visual interest.

THE RIGHT VASE
Sunflowers are heavy, so be certain to use a vase that's solid enough to bear their weight.
