You don't need a large area to grow enough plants for several large arrangements. Plan your garden so you can enjoy it year round by planting evergreens, deciduous plants, annuals and perennials. Plant rows of flowers in your vegetable garden. Herbs are easy to grow, and can be planted in pots and window boxes. They transform simple cooking into gourmet dishes, and delicately scent a room when dried and used in a wreath or an arrangement. You can usually find a wide selection of weeds, grains, seed-heads and pods in craft stores. By drying your own focal flowers such as; hydrangeas, zinnias, roses, dahlias and sunflowers; and a selection of line flowers such as: larkspur, delphinium and liatris you can save money and have a greater variety of flowers in your arrangements.
