Are you ready to discover the 5 Top Cut Flowers for June? We’re sharing expert insights into what’s back, best, and beautiful this month!
#1 Cornflower | Centaurea
Cornflowers, are also known by their Latin name, Centaurea.
Probably not your first choice as an everyday flower to use within your business or designs, but when it comes to sharing seasonal flowers, there are few that are so indicative of late spring and early summer. Add to that their unique star-shaped flower and you have something that might not demand attention quite as much as other flowers, but offers a carefree beauty quite unlike any other.
A firm favourite for weddings and when we take into consideration the range of colours available, including that true blue, it’s easy to see why.
#2 Lisianthus | Eustoma
Whilst Eustoma (or Lisianthus if you prefer) are available all year round, their natural season is the summer.
Perhaps it’s just our opinion, but some of the special varieties — such as Botanic Lavender Mist or Exotic Pink — seem to be so appropriate for summertime, as if they’ve been picked straight from a wild patch! (Although we know Montana Lisianthus pour so much dedication and expertise into their production).
When the double varieties are used singly (usually in wedding work) their flower heads are so often be mistaken for roses by the untrained eye — especially if they’re the super-sized BigSun varieties.
Below, we’ve only shared a handful of the ever-increasing and excitingly diverse selection of Eustoma | Lisianthus that are available.
We have a page dedicated to Eustoma | Lisianthus in our Flower Library. We’re confident that you’ll learn something from this page, regardless of your experience – put us to the test and give it a read. It’s packed with helpful information.

#3 Scabious
Oh, so many varieties!
We’ve shared 38 different varieties of Scabious with you here, but there are more available! So, if you thought the selection was limited, it’s time to think again. And we haven’t included any seed head varieties in this line-up either!

#4 Delphinium
If you want to impress, Delphiniums can make a breath-taking statement. With many stems reaching over a metre tall, they’re hard to beat! It’s true that the seasonal availability of Delphiniums has grown, along with their popularity. However, some months of the year see their quality reign supreme, and June is one of those months.
So, with superior quality and the greater range, we highly recommend that you celebrate and enjoy Delphiniums, perhaps more this month than any other.
There are so many colours and varieties available, considerably more than we can share below. These are just a few to whet your appetite.
Delphinium Guardian White
Delphinium Christel
Delphinium Dewi Violet Smile
#5 Astilbe
How many different varieties do you use?
From soft romantic tones to deeper dramatic shades, Astilbe offers texture and form that work across every design, but feels especially at home in wedding work, providing an alternative look that complements larger flowers beautifully.
We’ve only shared a dozen different Astilbe varieties with you below. Most of them you’ll see in our stock at different times and in June and July you’ll see a wider selection as they’re in their peak season.
Do you use all of these varieties, or at least the range of tones available — from the white, to the pale peachy-pink, through to the deeper red shades?
