Fragrant grape hyacinths form the base of this arrangement, which also includes chocolate cosmos and hellebores. Violas trail over the side, softening the look and adding another shade of blue. “I love the way the wood container and the chocolate cosmos contrast with the green hellebores,” says Campbell. “It says spring but in a moody way.”

“I knew I needed something bright for that small, dark corner,” says Campbell. A petite silver sugar server fills a niche in this secretary, and its reflective surface catches the eye. Diminutive blooms, such as cyclamen, forsythia tips, violas, and grape hyacinths, are just the right scale for the container and lend a hint of fragrance.

A lush mix of ‘Coral Charm’ peonies, hyacinths, and kumquats come together for an elegantly simple combination. “For this easy arrangement, I chose a container that the flowers can just erupt from and spill over,” says Campbell. “If you let the flowers do the work, it makes life much easier.”
