This is a simple dramatic arrangement which uses complimentary colors, fuchsia and cobalt blue to play off each other. The flowers are all cut to one length and put together in your hand like a hand held bouquet. The flowers were all bought at a grocery store and the cost is relatively low. Although these were purchased in the spring, you are in luck because spray roses are available year round.
