Gardenia

Gardenias are native to Southern Asia and Japan and represent elegance, grace and beauty. These common wedding flowers have no stem, so are a popular choice for wedding table centrepieces. Simply fill up a glass bowl with water and have them floating in the middle of the table.

A single gardenia is also a popular choice for corsages and hair accessories. The ivory petals surrounded by the deep green leaves make for a striking appearance and are perfect for bohemian-style weddings. They also look wonderful if you opt to have a flower crown!
