Florist Jana’s Tip (Wedding Specialist): "For many, a wedding without myrtle just doesn't feel complete. We use it to create traditional 'voničky' (wedding favors) for guests and boutonnières for the groom. I also love subtly weaving sprigs of myrtle directly into the wedding bouquet. It provides a cohesive look across all wedding arrangements. My professional secret: Keep myrtle sprigs in a cool place until the very last moment to ensure they stay perfectly glossy throughout the ceremony."
