Gwen Stefani may be best known as a performer, but she has also been showing off her green thumb over the last little while, so much so that her latest album is titled Bouquet.
It is apt, then, that the singer-songwriter has joined forces with floral arrangement and delivery service Farmgirl Flowers to create a signature bouquet of her own.
'I worked with the amazing founder of Farmgirl, Christina Stembel, to bring this vision to life,' Stefani states in the caption of her Instagram post, announcing the collaboration. 'Together, we’ve crafted the Look At Me Blossom bouquet, featuring gorgeous sunflowers, poppy peachy-pink roses, and vibrant autumn foliage, all wrapped in Farmgirl’s signature burlap. This album is a bouquet of songs, like flowers – a blend of everything from my past, present, and hopes for the future.'
The bouquet includes some of Stefani's favorite blooms, such as sunflowers, ranunculus, snapdragons, and French marigolds.
There's never a bad time for sunflowers, but we arguably need them the most over these darker days. Thankfully, Stefani has us covered. Her bouquet includes 25 (yes, you read that correctly) different kinds of flowers, including favorites like roses, sunflowers, ranunculus, and snapdragons. It's the perfect late-fall celebration, but it will look just as beautiful as venture into the winter months.
Farmgirl Flowers taps into the ever-popular flower delivery trend, allowing customers to order handmade arrangements straight to their doors nationwide. It is also the only large-scale, female-founded, and predominantly female-run e-commerce flower company, making it a fixture in the world of florals.
Beyond the Gwen Stefani collab, they boast a wide assortment of bouquets, from birthday and anniversary arrangements to seasonal flower combinations, including rustic roses and voluminous peonies, all surrounded by festive foliage. You can shop our favorite picks below.

Voluminous and undeniably beautiful, this assortment of roselilies are 'a pollen-less, more subtly scented, longer-lived and double-blossomed variant of lilium orientalis,' according to the Farmgirl website.

Choosing the perfect bouquet is one thing, but how can we ensure our flowers last longer after investing? Thankfully for us, the gardening experts at Two Wests & Elliot have shared their tips for keeping flowers fresh in a vase. First things first, we're reminded of the importance of cutting the stems.
'Before you place your flowers into their vase, it’s important to cut the ends of their stems!! Clip at least one to two inches off the stems, cutting at a slight angle, as this helps your flowers absorb the water more efficiently. Be sure to trim those ends every other day and when you change the water,' they say.
Our placement is also key. 'Direct sunlight, surprisingly, can actually cause your flowers to become frail quicker. Instead, it is best to keep them in indirect sunlight and away from hot areas such as near fireplaces and radiators.' Lastly, we should change the water every few days to ensure our blooms continue to look as beautiful as Gwen Stefani intended.
