Obsession of the Moment

White anemone flowers. Oh, I think I’m in love…

Aren’t these delicious? The white petals… the black center… they’re just so completely yummy. I have no idea how much they might cost, but I’m having a fantasy moment right now, and in my fantasy, I have white and black anemones. According to About.com, white anemones are in bloom in March. I think they’re a little bit vintage, and a little bit posh. We’re still deciding on what type of flowers we might use, and these are definitely on our short list.

Has anyone used anemones in their florals?

Finally!!! I have been admiring these buds forever. I love the light petals against the rustic center, a little sweet bridal on the outside, major drama on the inside. I’m glad someone else appreciates their whimsical beauty :)

I had a burnt orange colored anemone in my bouquet. I really wanted a flower to honor my grandma, and she liked sweet pea and anemone, and lucky for me, the anemone was in season! Our florist actually put it in at the very last minute, as it was kind of a “Hey, do you think…” suggestion from me. I loved them, and seeing them in the bouquet made me just grin.

That’s my bouquet (top right of the collage and the middle photo from Stoneblossom) !!! Excuse my excitement - I just get so giddy when I see my wedding photos in unexpected places.

Anyway, I had to have white anemones. I became obsessed. They are just so pretty!

i have to say.. i really loved anemones and wanted to use them, but then i found out that they symbolized “forsaken” and “dying hope”.. and i didnt want to use them anymore…

Ohh, Miss Dumpling, what have you done?! Now I have a new obsession! I wonder if they are in season in October…

@katherine: Honestly - I don’t exactly know how expensive they are. My bouquet was sort of on the expensive side, but I only needed two bouquets (me and MOH) so I splurged a bit. Sorry I couldn’t be more specific.

Those are our wedding flowers and I am quite obsessed too. We are having a black and white wedding and they fit perfectly.

we’re using anemones - we chose poppies as our inspiration/theme, so poppies are on our invites and anything else we can slap them on, however since our wedding is in the fall, actual poppy flowers aren’t to practical for bouquets and such…so we are using anemones which look just like poppies and give that bold, graphic look we are going for! red for me, white for the girls! i can’t wait to see how they come together!

I loooove anemones! We won’t be using them due to their black centers (the best part!), but I think that they are gorgeous!

We’re using white French anemone and pastel ranunculus!

And, through our florist, they aren’t very expensive at all! They’re about $2-3 per anemone.

I drool over these babies too, they are sooo elegant!!! I hope they are not pricey when I go to ask for pricing on them.
