September is finally here. I am slowly but surely preparing for cold weather, hot drinks, and lots and lots of pumpkins. In the meantime, I create floral arrangements. I have always been a huge fan of them. Whether it’s planting blooms, creating bouquets as decor, or picking them from a field, I admire their beauty! So come on and check out these Trader Joe’s Flower Arrangements! Love flowers.

With excellent prices and gorgeous blooms – TJ doesn’t disappoint! Here are some Trader Joe’s flower arrangements to start this new month and the upcoming season with all good things.

Trader Joe’s DIY Flower Arrangement Tips 101

Now I don’t know every single detail of every flower, but I do happen to know a few tips that will help you in the long run. Let’s dive in!

  • Cheap Prices. For starters, Trader Joe’s flower arrangments are priced so well, you’ll end up leaving the store with 10+ bundles of blooms. In all seriousness, their flowers are inexpensive and 100% worth it.

  • Broad Collection. TJ has a great collection of all sorts and types of flowers. They also include seasonal favorites such as Peonies, Chrysanthemums, and all-year-round fresh Eucalyptus. In the end, you will leave with either your all-time favorite flowers or a new batch you’ve never seen before!

  • Plan Ahead for Seasonal Flowers. I get it. It’s hard to find the exact flower on your mind, that’s why you call ahead and plan what flowers are in stock during what season. Here is what I’ve learned over the years: In the Spring, Trader Joe’s carries Peonies, Daffodils, and Tulips. In the Fall, there are miniature Pumpkin Stems, Chrysanthemums, Pumpkins, and more. During the Winter, TJ sells Grump Trees, Poinsettias, Green Holiday, Red Winterberries, and more. Also, if you see anything seasonal that is out of the daily flowers, don’t hesitate to buy them. You may find that they won’t be in stock the next day or for the rest of the season. I learned the hard way in regards to Magnolia leaves and cattails!

  • Year Round In Stock Flowers. Trader Joe’s keeps a wide variety of flowers in stock all year. Luckily for me, these are some of my favorite flowers so I have them at my disposal. This year-round collection includes Sunflowers, White Hydrangeas, Alstroemerias, and Eucalyptus. I am very fortunate to have a local grocery store with wonderful flowers and even better prices thanks to Trader Joe’s flower arrangements!

  • Find out Restock. Trader Joe’s ends up restocking their flowers every day. Yep, you heard correctly. Every day! They tend to organize the bundles and stock them early in the morning, so around 8-9 am. I would go first thing in the morning to receive the best options available before they are gone!

  • Premade Arrangments or Individual Sets. Trader Joe’s supplies premade bouqets full of colorful flowers and also individual sets of beautiful blooms. If I were you, I would choose the individual sets of flowers to create your flower arrangment because mixing and match different types of flowers and greenery can create something wonderful. The premade bouquets are also inexpensive and are the type of purchase you want to make if you want a “grab and go” type of arrangment! But you are here to arrange flowers into stunning floral arrangments for decor, so between you and me, pick the individual sets!

  • Good Fillers. When creating an arrangment, you need something to fill up the space within the flowers. So here are some great options of fillers: Babies Breath, White Hydrangeas, Eucalyptus, Green Dianthus, and Mini Roses (doesn’t matter what color). I typically use white Hydrangeas and Eucalyptus as fillers because they are simple yet stunning choices for my go-to style!

Now for the part, you all have been waiting for. Time to start creating these flower arrangements!

With these collections of flowers from Trader Joe’s, you will be able to mix and match, create stunning decor, and perfect for your flower arranging skills. Over the years, I have perfected some skills. I started creating flower bouquets when I was younger with my grandma, and I will never forget those cherished times. In honor of this post, I am sharing a passion close to my heart.

Whether you’re a beginner, newcomer, or pro, you will learn how to organize and design elegant Trader Joe’s flower arrangments beautifully! Let’s begin!

When placing the mini-pumpkins in the vase, attach the bottom of the pumpkin to a wooden shish kabob skewer.

This bouquet is simple and perfect for fall.

Out of all of the flower markets I’ve been to, I have never seen beautiful blooms of peach-colored flowers until now.

Since Fall is arriving, if you want something to remind you of Summer, then this flower arrangement is perfect for exactly that.

Add a few sprigs of Grevillea Ivanhoe stems to fill in the space. And don’t forget to add a few magnolia leaves to create a nice bit of contrast!

    Your arrangements are all beautiful! Every time I make a bouquet with TJ’s hydrangeas they look great and by morning they are all wilted. I soak them in water and they look good only to wilt all over again. Any suggestions? Thank you.

      Good afternoon Tricia, I’ve had this issue as well. Unfortunately, I don’t have any suggestions for you. Though, I definitely recommend using the flower packets that come with the TJ flowers. I have a friend who believes cutting the stems at the bottom helps bring water to the flowers, you might want to try that. Have a great day 🙂
