The significance of the Money Daisy

The Money Daisy, belonging to the Sunflower family, is known for its vibrant and diverse beauty. This flower is not only associated with luck and prosperity but also comes in a wide range of colors such as red, yellow, and orange, often linked to joy, goodness, and wealth. Additionally, this flower is considered a symbol of happiness. People often decorate their homes with Money Daisies during the Lunar New Year as a way to wish everyone a year filled with joy, peace, and happiness.

The Money Daisy is typically divided into two types: single petals and double petals. Although the single-petaled flower is more common, in this article, we will focus on the creative and attractive ways to arrange double-petaled Money Daisies.

How to care for double-petaled Money Daisies

This type of flower is known for its simple structure, consisting of only a stem without leaves, making it easy to care for.

After purchasing the flowers, you only need to cut the stem at an angle to increase the water absorption area, arrange them at the desired length for your arrangement, and then soak the stems in pre-prepared nutrient water for about 30 to 60 minutes before placing them in a vase.

How to arrange double-petaled Money Daisies

The simplest arrangement method

Double-petaled Money Daisies, with their petite and elegant appearance, do not require much trimming after purchasement. They have soft stems and small sizes, which can sometimes make it challenging to arrange for those who are not accustomed to this task.

However, you can try the classic flower arrangement style, which is the easiest to do! Remember to soak the floral foam in water to keep it moist, controlling the water supply to the flowers and preventing the stems from decaying or the water from becoming odorous.

When arranging, you should only immerse the stem of the flower about 2-3cm to avoid quick decay of the stem.

Before starting the arrangement, you should sort the flowers by height and soak them in nutrient solution for 30-60 minutes.

First, place the foam piece into the mouth of the vase.

Next, arrange the flowers to determine the shape and height for your display space.

Select flowers with different curvatures and heights to arrange around, creating depth for the flower arrangement.

Cover the foam by inserting short flowers closely to the mouth of the vase.

Repeat the same process on the right side, choosing curvy flowers with various heights to fill in the gaps, creating a rich appearance for the flower arrangement.

Lastly, add some sprigs of baby’s breath to bring a graceful and soft touch to the flower arrangement. This arrangement requires about 3 bunches of flowers, a total of 60 flowers.

When using floral foam, it is easy to move the flower arrangement, simply lift the foam block and transfer it to another vase.

You can also choose a blue glazed vase with antique coin patterns to enhance the decoration, combined with a few orchid branches, creating a feeling of spring at home.

Golden Money Daisies bring luck and wealth, while white Money Daisies symbolize purity and new beginnings. Combining white, gold, and light pink Money Daisies would be an ideal choice for living spaces, bringing a neutral yet vibrant atmosphere.

If you prefer simplicity, try arranging pastel pink Money Daisies.

A flower arrangement combining pink Money Daisies, baby’s breath, and Money Grass is also an excellent choice. Start by arranging the Money Grass to create the structure, then add baby’s breath and finally Money Daisies to fill in the spaces. This arrangement does not require floral foam as Money Grass and baby’s breath help shape the arrangement.

Or if you want something even simpler, just drop a few clusters of baby’s breath in a vase to create a gentle and delicate flower arrangement.

Creative ways to arrange Money Daisies

For example, in this flower arrangement, you will combine mini Money Daisies with three different types of daisies: eyeball daisy, tana daisy, and black-eyed daisy, along with snowflake flowers and pearl wheat flowers – common types of flowers found in traditional markets. To arrange this flower arrangement, use a plant pot, line the pot with plastic bags, place the pre-soaked foam on the mouth of the pot, and then insert the flowers to cover the top of the pot.

For this flower arrangement, you can use a fruit basket, place a bowl inside it, and put water-soaked foam in it for arranging flowers. Choose clustered flowers such as daisies, willow flowers, and small campanulas for the fixed arrangement, then decorate with single flowers, inserting larger blossoms first and smaller ones later, from top to bottom to avoid damaging the flowers. Despite the combination of various types of flowers, the pastel-colored Money Daisies still stand out and are not overshadowed.

Next is a vibrant orange Money Daisy flower arrangement, conveying the message of “The sunshine of life.” Arrange this flower arrangement similar to the previous one, using red leaves for shaping, and then easily insert the Money Daisies into the gaps between the branches. The softly curving petals of the double-petaled Money Daisies create a flying appearance for the flower arrangement.

If you want to change the traditional flower arrangement space, try using a pumpkin shell. Hollow a round hole on top of the pumpkin, wrap it in plastic, and place water-soaked foam inside. Simply insert the Money Daisies into the foam, and a unique flower arrangement will be created. This method not only simple but also creates an interesting focal point for your space.
