The 7 Best Spring Bulbs for Cut Flowers —"You'll Fill Your Vases for Weeks"

A vase of flowers including narcissus and tulips.

Your backyard isn't the only place for showcasing spring flowers. Bringing the outdoors in with loosely structured and naturalistic-looking arrangements of spring flowers is a big trend right now, especially when paired with the twiggy stems of forced leaves and other flowering branches. The joy of these displays is that they are so easy to do and anything goes. Floppy flowers? No problem, it's part of the look.

Simple spring blooms are the best flowers for cut floral arrangements, giving you the opportunity to display a small selection of stems and branches in individual bud vases, Mason jars, test tubes or whatever else works for you so every flower gets their chance in the spotlight. Alternatively if you only have one spring flower variety to hand they will always look good as a solo act, crammed into an interesting ceramic jug or vintage vase.
