A Study in Blush and Coral

Sybil Sylvester shows how to create an arrangement in blush pinks and coral using the 2025 FLOWER Magazine Flower of the Year, Levante Rosa Anemone.

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.

Sybil shares dozens of tips for creating a showy arrangement, from selecting a container and liner to color combos and flower placement. If you enjoy this feature, subscribe to FLOWER magazine for more inspiring homes, gardens, lifestyle content, and of course, florals!

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.”
