Flowers in Season Right Now
Find flowers in season right now, with practical picks for events, weddings, and gifts.
Want flowers that look better, last longer, and make your budget go further? Start with seasonality. Choosing flowers in season right now gives you stronger stems, cleaner color, and blooms that tend to hold up better through a long event day.
That matters whether you are planning wedding flowers, styling a brand event, or sending a gift that needs to feel special instead of generic. Seasonal stems are usually easier to source and more consistent in quality, which means fewer compromises on shape, color, and freshness.
If you want a month-by-month view before you choose, see our LA guide to flowers in season. Below, you will find 10 strong options that work beautifully for weddings, events, and gifts, plus simple notes on what each flower does best.
1. Peonies
Peonies are famous for their full, soft shape and romantic feel. They can make a bouquet look rich very quickly, even when the palette stays simple. They are especially popular for weddings and milestone gifts because they feel generous in both photos and real life.
The catch is timing. Peony season is short, so if you want a specific shade or quantity, it helps to plan early. When they are available, they are one of the easiest ways to get that lush, high-impact look clients often ask for.
Best practices for using peonies
Order ahead: For larger event work, give yourself extra time if peonies are a must-have.
Keep them cool: Heat shortens their vase life and can push them open too fast.
Refresh the stems: Re-cut before arranging and change water daily.
Styling and pairing ideas
Peonies pair well with eucalyptus for a softer garden look. For something more tailored, use one peony color with a quieter accent flower like ranunculus. If you want more background on symbolism, read our guide to peony flower meaning.
For readers who want the same designer-led approach without choosing every stem, a Designer’s Choice arrangement is a practical fit when seasonal availability shifts week to week.
Seasonal flowers are often fresher, stronger, and more consistent in color and quality. They also tend to perform better through long event days and can make your budget go further.
Peonies, ranunculus, garden roses, lisianthus, and hydrangeas are all strong wedding choices, depending on the date and the look you want. The best pick usually comes down to season, palette, and how much fullness or movement you want in the design.
Lisianthus, garden roses, tulips, and stock are all known for good vase life when they are properly conditioned and kept in clean water. Hydrangeas can also work well, but they need more attention to hydration.
If you need a specific flower, color, or larger quantity, it helps to plan early. Short-season flowers like peonies usually need more lead time than flexible mixed seasonal designs.
Start with the occasion, your color direction, and how you want the arrangement to feel. A designer-led seasonal option can be a good fit when you want the freshest stems available without choosing every flower yourself.

2. Ranunculus
Ranunculus have thin, layered petals that give arrangements movement and detail. They photograph beautifully and come in a wide range of shades, from soft neutrals to brighter spring tones. They are a smart choice for bouquets, bud vases, and centerpieces that need texture without feeling heavy.
They also open gradually, which can work well for event timing. If flowers are delivered the day before, ranunculus often look even better the next day.
Best practices for using ranunculus
Hydrate first: Let stems drink in cool water before design work.
Strip lower foliage: Keep leaves out of the water to help blooms stay cleaner.
Give them time: Slightly closed buds often open into the best shape later.
Styling and pairing ideas
Mix ranunculus with roses for a soft, layered palette, or use one stem per bud vase for a clean event look. Their texture makes them especially useful when you want something elegant that still feels light.
3. Tulips
Tulips feel simple, but they are rarely boring. They fit modern palettes well and come in enough colors to work for weddings, dinners, and branded events. Because tulips keep growing after they are cut, arrangements can look more natural and alive over time.
They are also helpful when you want a cleaner look with less fragrance. For clients who are trying to avoid flowers that feel overly formal, tulips can be a strong answer.
Best practices for using tulips
Use cool water: It helps slow drooping.
Keep them away from heat: Warm rooms shorten their life.
Watch stem movement: Tulips bend and shift, which can be part of their charm.
Styling and pairing ideas
A single variety in one vase can look very polished. For spring work, mix tulips with ranunculus and lighter greenery. If you are matching flowers to a wedding date, our wedding reception flowers page shows how seasonal choices can shape the whole room.
One Fiore client described the studio’s flowers as “stunning and unique,” which is exactly why tulips work so well when the goal is something clean, current, and not cookie-cutter.

4. Garden Roses
Garden roses bring a fuller shape and stronger scent than standard roses. They can feel romantic like peonies, but they are usually easier to work into designs across more of the year. That makes them useful when you want a premium focal flower without waiting for a very short season.
They are a favorite for bridal bouquets, guest tables, and higher-end gifts. Even a few stems can make an arrangement feel more considered.
Best practices for using garden roses
Source carefully: Variety matters with garden roses, especially for petal shape.
Condition before design: Let them drink well before arranging.
Use clean water: It helps reduce petal spotting and early decline.
Styling and pairing ideas
Pair garden roses with lisianthus, stock, or softer foliage when you want volume without visual clutter. They also work well in designs that need to feel refined but not overly formal.
5. Hydrangeas
Hydrangeas create fullness fast. One stem can do a lot of work, which is why they show up so often in ceremony pieces, larger centerpieces, and entry arrangements. They are useful when you want scale and softness at the same time.
The main thing to remember is water. Hydrangeas are thirsty, and they show stress quickly if hydration slips.
Best practices for using hydrangeas
Check water often: Do not let vessels run low.
Re-cut stems: Fresh cuts help with uptake.
Use them where they can stay cool: Warm rooms make wilt happen faster.
Styling and pairing ideas
Use hydrangeas as the base, then layer in roses or lisianthus for detail. For larger room designs, they help build that full look clients expect without making every arrangement feel dense.
6. Dahlias
Dahlias bring shape. Some are rounded and neat, some are wild and spiky, and many have colors that feel especially strong in late summer and fall. If you want flowers that read clearly from across the room, dahlias do that well.
They are also more delicate than they appear, so careful handling matters. This is one of those flowers that rewards fresh prep and a shorter design window.
Best practices for using dahlias
Handle gently: Petals and stems bruise more easily than many people expect.
Keep water very clean: Dahlias do best with frequent changes.
Use support when needed: Larger heads can get heavy.
Styling and pairing ideas
Dahlias pair well with garden roses and trailing textures for fall events. If you want a more structured look, stay within one color family and let the flower shape carry the design.
Lisianthus has a soft, rose-like look and often lasts very well. That makes it one of the most useful flowers on this list for people who want elegance and better value in the same design. It is especially good in centerpieces and bouquets that need to stay polished over several hours.
Many stems carry multiple blooms, which helps build fullness without needing as many focal flowers.
Best practices for using lisianthus
Choose stems with buds: They will keep opening over time.
Avoid crowding the petals: Bruising shows easily.
Use floral food: It can help extend vase life.
Styling and pairing ideas
White lisianthus works beautifully with garden roses and light greenery. It is also a strong flower for weekly arrangements in homes and hospitality spaces where longevity matters.
8. Sunflowers
Sunflowers bring instant energy. They are easy to recognize, hold up well, and make sense when you want visible impact without a very high cost per stem. For outdoor gatherings and summer events, they can set the tone quickly.
If the design needs to stay tidy, pollen-free varieties are usually the smarter choice.
Best practices for using sunflowers
Choose pollen-free stems for events: This helps keep tables and clothing cleaner.
Use sturdy vessels: The flower heads can get heavy.
Refresh water often: Strong stems still need clean hydration.
Styling and pairing ideas
Sunflowers look good with blue or gold accents for a brighter palette. For a more restrained version, cream or burgundy varieties can feel surprisingly polished.
9. Stock Flowers
Stock adds height, scent, and softness. It is useful when you want an arrangement to feel fuller without relying only on round focal blooms. Because it has a warm fragrance, it can also shape the mood of a welcome table, dinner, or hotel entry.
It tends to last well when cared for properly, which is part of its appeal for multi-day use.
Best practices for using stock flowers
Look for partly closed tops: They open gradually and last longer.
Keep stems clean: Remove lower foliage before arranging.
Mind the fragrance: Strong scent is a benefit in some spaces, not all.
Styling and pairing ideas
Stock pairs well with roses and ranunculus because it adds vertical contrast. For event work that needs to look polished and stay easy to photograph, see our corporate event flowers service.
10. Seasonal greenery: Eucalyptus and Aspidistra
Good arrangements are not just about blooms. Greenery gives shape, helps flowers feel placed on purpose, and can make a design look fuller without adding too many focal stems. Eucalyptus adds softness and scent, while aspidistra brings cleaner structure.
When used well, greenery makes the whole arrangement feel more finished.
Best practices for using seasonal greenery
Hydrate before use: Foliage drinks too.
Strip leaves below the waterline: This helps arrangements stay fresher.
Choose greenery by shape, not only color: Structure matters.
Styling and pairing ideas
Use eucalyptus with peonies and roses for a softer profile, or aspidistra for cleaner, modern lines. For more foliage ideas, read our best greenery for arrangements guide.
