Plant centrepieces

Hi everyone,

I'm toying with the idea of having plant pots as table centrepieces rather than flowers - I was thinking of maybe minature roses or a lilly in a nice pot with some matching ribbon around it. I've had a look on the internet but havent seen anything similar to what im thinking. Is anyone else using plants rather than flowers? Would be great if someone could flash me some pictures?

Thanks!

:-)

I would advise against lilies in pots on the tables as they can be strongly perfumed and can be uncomfortable for some guests who suffer from allergies like hayfever. Miniature roses would look lovely or if you want something with a little bit more height, phalaenopsis orchids which can be bought either fresh or artificial and given to guests as presents afterwards:-

These above are artificial ones - real ones can be bought from supermarkets, garden centres or M & S.

Thanks Both - these look great!. Think i meant Orchid rather than lilly - really really bad with getting flower names confused!!!

Think the mini roses with the petals scattered looks lovely!

My friend had potted blue hydrangeas on her tables. They looked lovely.

Not sure if it is really what you were looking for but my cousin had these miniature potted trees for her centrepeices. They are artificial and the 'leaves' part of the tree looks like a ball of roses with ribbon tied at the base. She had black as her colour scheme was monochrome but I believe they come in different colours:

Sorry picture is not great, only one I could find x
