Sybil Sylvester of Wildflower Designs shows how she made one of her arrangements featuring Anemone Levante Rosa, our 2025 Flower of the Year. She complements the blush anemones with coral pink ‘Miss Piggy’ roses (one of her longtime favorites), as well as amaranthus, astilbe, sweet peas, and plenty of “fuzzy greens,” as she calls them.

The arrangement found it's place on a chest in the dining room.
“If your arrangement pleases you, don’t worry about what anybody else thinks. If you like it and you think it’s pretty, then it’s pretty! It’s for you to enjoy, so find a handful of flowers and give it a try.”
