Accent Your Tree with Poinsettias
Poinsettias are a holiday staple for good reason – their big, bright red petals instantly evoke the Christmas season! For a traditional look, dot poinsettia plants around the base of your tree in classic red or opt for other festive colors like white or pink. You can also tuck smaller poinsettia blooms into the branches as accents. And new varieties like black poinsettia flowers for your Christmas tree. It will add striking drama against green pine needles.
Cheerful Christmas Tree With Sunflowers
While most people associate sunflowers with summer, incorporating big, bright sunflowers into Christmas tree decor brings cheerful pops of color to dreary winter days. Plus, the large blooms make a major statement. For best results, opt for miniature sunflower varieties that won’t weigh the branches down too much.

Forage for Flowering Branches
One easy, affordable way to decorate your tree with flowers is to clip branches from flowering shrubs in your (or your neighbor’s) yard! Often, blooming plants still have flowers through early winter. Pretty flowering offshoots from magnolia, quince, dogwood, cherry and apple trees, spirea, forsythia, camellias, and more make lovely floral decorations for Christmas trees straight from nature.
Craft Paper Flower Christmas Tree Decor
If fresh florals are hard to come by in the dead of winter, get crafty with paper flowers! It’s surprisingly simple to make gorgeous paper roses, orchids, and other blooms to adorn small Christmas trees. Recycle wrapping paper, tissue, crepe streamers, and more to make these handmade beauties for a personalized decorative touch.
Style a Floral Christmas Tree Arrangement
For the ultimate floral Christmas tree, a custom-designed arrangement is the way to go. Many local florists and online companies offer spectacular Christmas flower arrangements featuring winter greens, berries and blooms artfully decorated on the branches of small potted or fresh-cut pine and fir trees. The arrangements come in different sizes and prices to fit any budget.
You can also DIY the look by wiring and taping your own picked flowers and decorative elements onto a tabletop tree form. Some pretty options beyond florals include faux butterflies, birds’ nests, glittery pine cones, fruits like cranberries and citrus slices, and Christmas ornaments. Let your creativity run wild!
Display Standalone Holiday Flower Arrangements
Don’t forget that Christmas blooms don’t have to be confined only to the tree itself. A few small yet show-stopping flower arrangements displayed on the mantel, entry console, dining table, or other living space surfaces complement a delightfully decorated tree.
Many florists sell breathtaking pre-made holiday flower arrangement creations, or you can order vibrant seasonal flowers like amaryllis, paperwhites, Christmas cactus, cyclamen, Christmas roses, carnations, and chrysanthemums from online sellers and create your own cheerful holiday arrangements.
