HORIZONTAL FLOWER ARRANGEMENT

A common choice for florists, this arrangement features flowers arranged in rows or zigzag patterns. Fragrant flowers like Jasmine are often used, while roses and carnations are avoided due to their less favorable display in this style. Hydrangeas and daisies, however, shine beautifully in horizontal arrangements, making them perfect for table settings.
