Line flowers stand tall and have many
blossoms close to the stem. They are “showy” flowers like liatris,
snap dragons, delphiniums, stock, gladiola and Canterbury bells. The line flowers are inserted
both vertically and horizontally in the design first, to establish the
direction and shape of the arrangement. Focal and filler flowers are
added to add to the shape and feeling of the design.
Focal flowers, like roses, magnolias, hydrangeas and peonies are
single stem, compact the flowers that command the attention of the viewer.
They are placed close to the center of the arrangement slightly above
and drooping below the edge. They add stability to a design.
   
Filler flowers have clusters of individual flowers on a single
stem or flower head. Some fillers have multiple leaves and feathering
blooms. They are called transitional flowers because they are used to
fill spaces between the line and focal flowers. statise, dianthus,
denzia, pom-poms, field flowers, baby’s breath, poppies, rananculus and wax flowers are
examples of filler flowers
