- Pros/Cons
- Flower Care
- Quantity Help
- Substitutes
The Good: We love sunflowers because they are a classic wildflower and so rustic! Their heads are large, so it only takes a few in an arrangement. Pair them with some salidago and hydrangea in a mason jar, and boom, you’re done! For an alternate look, you can pluck off all the petals to show a brown center and green collar.
The Bad: They can be cumbersome to work with due to their weight and size. They are also inflexible, stiff, and because they curve, their heads typically face sideways.
- Give the stems a fresh cut, and place in cool water.
- Set in a sunny spot to encourage opening if sunflowers come closed
Sunflowers are considered a Filler Flower. Based on our design suggestions here’s our quantity recommendation:

- Centerpieces: 3-5 stems
- Large Arrangements: 10-15 Stems
Flower Moxie reserves the right to make changes or substitutions. All substitutions are only done as a last resort, and only when the reasons for doing so are reasonable and genuine. For example, if a flower becomes unavailable (off-crop), incorrect color, or not in good condition to grace a wedding function we will substitute a flower that has a similar color and price-point.
Acceptable Subs: Daisies, mums, or cushion flowers
