“Poppies: They’re graphic, the colors are luscious, and they have a mod flair. Well done, Mother Nature.”—Jonathan Adler, potter, designer and author
“My favorite flower in a cut arrangement is a hibiscus, especially the white one with hot pink inside. I love tropical flowers that have the power to transport you to somewhere warm and exotic, and that’s what the hibiscus does for me. I also love how bright and saturated the color is, almost a natural neon.” —Sasha Bikoff, interior designer
“It’s hard to beat a classic rose in full bloom. It’s perhaps the quintessential flower, often with a beautiful scent—and with the wide range of colors, forms and sizes, one can always find the right rose.”—John Douglas Eason, interior designer
“I love white or pale pink proteas. They are so cool looking!”—Shawn Henderson, interior designer
“I love poppies. A single one works or they are perfect as a simple bouquet too. They have incredible undulating stems that are so sculptural. You don’t even need to arrange them, they do all the work themselves.”—Christiane Lemieux, interior designer
