For a unique look in a fresh-cut bouquet, try using coneflower (Echinacea spp. and hybrids) — without the petals. Pluck the petals and it won’t matter what condition the bloom is in when it’s cut. See in the photo how the texture, color and shape of the different cones become the focus? Mix in a few with other flowers or turn a handful into a unique bouquet.
