From soft and misty apricot, peach, cream, bronze and lilac to bright shades of aubergine and red; autumn colours can be as rich or as whimsical as you decide.
Gerbera, roses and calla lilies are fantastic choices for this time of year and for a little texture, foliage is perfect to bulk up bouquets. Twigs, blackberries, ivy and croton leaves provide some well needed rustic texture.
