Dahlias and gerberas are flowers that are similar to each other and have many oblong petals. They come from the same family of Asteraceae flowers and can adopt almost all the colors of the rainbow. Despite their undeniable charm, they often give way to more popular plants and are not widely used in floristry. Gerberas are often woven in commemorative wreaths due to their flat round shape. Dahlias are rarely used in professional composing of bouquets and they are more often grown in home gardens. However, new floristic trends more and more often use forgotten plants, including both dahlias and gerberas, weaving them into wedding or decorative bouquets.
