Fall is a unique time of the year with countless seasonal plants. A fall-themed flower arrangement can be a stunning gift or addition to your home décor, especially when you include certain seasonal flowers. Look for the following four types of flowers when exploring options at your local flower shop.

Essential Fall Flowers

1. Sweet Alyssum

Pink and purple are two overlooked fall colors that blend well with traditional orange, yellow, and brown. If you want to add it to a flower arrangement, look for sweet alyssum. This honey-scented plant is easy to care for, and it can also be added to your garden. It grows in a carpet texture, though can also hang over arrangements to add character.

2. Helenium

Although it may be better known as “sneezeweed,” helenium won’t actually make you sneeze. It comes in a variety of yellow shades, including gold and rust, so it pairs well with other fall colors and greenery. If you want to add it to your garden, it’s excellent for attracting bees. Try a flower arrangement with helenium and fall grasses.

3. Iberis

Iberis is a beautiful white flower that blooms in both fall and spring. It can grow in a cascading pattern—great for unique flower arrangements—and is tolerant of various temperatures and conditions. It pairs especially well with dicentra.

4. Sunflowers

Sunflowers are an excellent centerpiece for your fall flower arrangement. These classic flowers are large, vibrant, and full of character. Enjoy a bouquet of sunflowers by themselves or add them to a festive vase surrounded by pumpkins and other fall decor.
