Top 10 Trending Christmas Flowers, Plants & Wreaths

Any one of these options will bring a sense of beauty and warmth to your home this season.

The holidays, with all their cocoa and cookies and sparkly lights, are upon us once again. And with them comes a chance for people to reconnect over time-cherished traditions and experience the joy of decking the halls with their favorite heirlooms and seasonal florals. “Christmas is the peak of home entertaining season," says Valerie Ghitelman, VP of product development, design & sourcing, consumer florals & gifts, for 1-800-Flowers.com. “Our homes are our sanctuary, and people are enhancing their sanctuary with beautiful flowers and plants."

Ghitelman says she has seen a change in the types of flowers and wreaths that are trending for Christmas. “People are looking for shorter, more compact arrangements and distinct centerpieces that are meant to create a festive environment." Flowers and greenery that have a longer vase life, such as carnationschrysanthemums, cremones, lilies, and roses, are in vogue, as are monochromatic color schemes.

Moreover, a general sense of nostalgia is also influencing foliage choices. “We are seeing a return to classic design and traditional, historical colors," says Ghitelman, who believes this shift is based on people's emotional desire to connect to the past.

"The demands of family and work can be challenging, and flowers promote physical and emotional well-being, brighten our homes, and create a sense of beauty in our environment," Ghitelman says.

With that in mind, here are 10 trending Christmas flowers, plants, and wreaths for the 2024 holiday season.

Magnolia Wreath

Shop: Magnolia Wreath from Harry & David

When it comes to wreaths, Ghitelman says it's all about the ribbon. “This embellishment defines the wreath's aesthetic in determining if the wreath is rustic or refined, classic or modern, traditional or trendy," she says. She also points out that seasonal elements, such as pinecones, balls, faux birds, and even woodland animals, can create an authentic design. This lovely wreath checks all the design boxes with its myriad textures, while a beautifully designed wired bow adds the finishing touch.
