After months of cold, we're all craving a burst of color to shake off the winter blues. At ART Flowers LA, we've got just the trick to brighten your day: a bouquet filled with small blue spring flowers. Yep, blue bouquets might sound a bit out of the ordinary, but stick with us, and you'll discover the incredible variety and vibrance they can bring to any space!
The Meaning Behind the Blue
So, what's the deal with the blue spring flower, anyway? Blue, in the floral world, is a bit of a rarity, which makes it all the more special. It's the color of
- tranquility
- serenity
- openness.
It’s what you see when staring into a clear sky or out over a calm sea. Blue blooms have this cool way of bringing a sense of peace and calm to wherever they're placed. They are perfect for creating a soothing atmosphere. Plus, they symbolize trust, loyalty, and wisdom — pretty deep, right? Having an aquamarine bouquet around is like a gentle reminder to breathe, relax, and trust.
Bouquet Inspirations

Thinking about adding some magic to your life or someone else's? Here are five bouquet ideas with little blue spring flowers that are anything but ordinary.
The Classic Rose Bouquet
Indigo roses are real unicorns, so mysterious and enchanting. They're not naturally occurring, but that doesn't make them any less stunning. A bouquet with these blooms is a very powerful gift. Pair these beauties with some white baby's breath or silver dollar eucalyptus if you want it to look a tad dreamy.
Tip: Before you put your roses in water, hold the stems under running water and snip the ends at an angle. It might sound like a small thing, but it helps them drink up much more effectively.
Hydrangea Heaven

Hydrangeas come in a variety of colors, but the navy ones? They're something else. They're all about gratitude, grace, and beauty. A lush bouquet of these flowers, with their big, cloud-like blooms, can fill any room with grace. Mix in some pale pink roses or peonies if you prefer a soft contrast in floral arrangements.
Tip: Give the hydrangeas’ stems a fresh cut and dunk them into some room temperature water mixed with a spoonful of sugar.
Iris Mix
Irises, especially the indigo ones, are mainly about hope and faith. They have this elegant, almost regal look few blooms have. Combine them with some yellow tulips or daffodils to add positivity because, on their own, they may look a bit gloomy.
Tip: Irises can be a bit of a diva. After arranging them in your vase, pop a penny into the water. The copper will act like a DIY antibacterial agent.
Delphinium Dreams
Delphiniums bring height, drama, and a touch of the whimsical. Pair them with some soft lavender or lilac blooms if the task is to encourage someone to keep dreaming big and aiming high.
Tip: Delphiniums might droop over the edge of your vase so use a tall one and fill it with plenty of water. Plus, you can tie the stems together with a piece of twine at the base.
The Forget-Me-Not Charm
These tiny navy flowers are as sweet as their name suggests. They symbolize true love and memories that last forever. They're perfect when you want a delicate touch to your bouquet. Mix forget-me-nots with some green foliage and white blooms — they pair so well!
Tip: These blooms might seem like they'd fade fast. Yet, you can extend their charm with a simple trick. Forget-me-nots thrive in cooler temperatures, so at night, move them to a cooler spot in your home, like near a window. Just make sure it's not too drafty. This will give them a little bit of night-time chill to mimic their natural environment.
