Every bloom in a bouquet tells a story. In Pamela Anderson's Mother's Day arrangements, each flower stands on its own and also comes together for a stunning final product.
We spotted the actress's gorgeous bouquets in a recent Instagram post, and they're a masterclass in arranging flowers like a pro. To understand what makes Pamela's arrangments so stunning, we consulted with Rachel Bull, master gardener and Head of Gardens at Homes & Gardens. We discussed what makes these bouquets special, and the pieces you need to recreate them.
The first thing she notices is how the bouquets have a distinctly modern feel that taps into 2025 floral trends. Rachel explains: 'They are defintely contemporary arrangements, I'd say. All very bold flower choices.'
No matter your flowers, choosing the best vase extends their longevity and allows you to display them in the prettiest way possible. Here are a few of my favorite glass vases, to echo Pamela's look.
This beautiful gold and glass test tube vase would be gorgeous on a window sill. The vases are hinged to be tilted in different ways to create a different effect.

An ikebana vase keeps the flowers separate with a lid with holes in it. This makes it easier to replace the water and add food to the flowers.

This gorgeous footed vase is made of white ceramic and lets your flowers shine. It would be gorgeous on a bedside table or in a living room.
Was $51.18, now $28.99 at Wayfair
Furthermore, instead of using traditional leafy sprigs, Pamela's bouquets integrate green with an alternative pick: green fragrant flowers. Rachel explains: 'So instead of using a lot of foliage, the green comes through in the choice of green flowers, which is in-keeping with such a bold style where every single flower has a starring role.'
What blooms feature in Pamela's summer flower arrangement? Rachel spots green hydrangeas, bells of Ireland and viburnum opulus roseum are the lime balls in the arrangement on the left.
She states: 'Big cymbidium orchids are in there, lots of roses, spray roses. I can also see jasmine trails coming from the vase on the left (not in flower yet) - so there would be a more delicate touch added from that and of course scent. That will help to soften the large blooms.'
Better yet, Rachel explains that you don't have to worry about how to keep flowers fresh in a vase with these blooms. She remarks: 'These arrangements would be super long-lasting, as all these flowers are hardy in a vase.'
Pamela Anderson is one of our favorite arbiters of taste, and this extends to her choice of flowers. Follow in her footsteps, and your arrangements will always stun.

Prince William Is Aiming for a "Diana Reboot of the Monarchy" When He Becomes King, Per Royal Author
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. When Prince William ascends the throne one day, insiders say he won't just be continuing the legacy of his father, King Charles, or his grandmother, Queen Elizabeth—he'll be reshaping the monarchy with his own bold vision. Focusing on less talk and more action, the Prince of Wales intends to prioritize projects and events that drive actual change versus cutting ribbons. According to royal author Edward White, it's a blend of Princess Diana and the late Queen in terms of philosophy. White, who wrote Dianaworld: An Obsession, recently told the Mirror that the late princess was keen to bring Prince William up in a way that would help keep the Royal Family relevant. But in doing so, the Prince of Wales developed his own strategy that also pays tribute to his late mother. "Diana said that she was trying to raise a future king that would ensure the monarchy survived into the 21st century—and William is trying to do a Diana reboot of the monarchy, combining the best of his mother and his grandmother," he told the media outlet. View Deal Like his mother, Prince William is passionate about the issue of homelessness, and last year, released the ITV documentary Prince William: We Can End Homelessness. In the program, he talked about his mother brought him to shelters, revealing that as an adult, he struggles with "not doing more." "I've spent enough time learning and listening to what people have been through that I feel almost guilty every time I leave," he admitted. As King, William seems determined to change the narrative around shaking hands and making appearances versus being able to help in a more concrete way—much like Diana did. "She seemed to think that if she wasn't taking the most extreme course of action to remedy a problem, then she wasn't actually taking any action at all," White told the Mirror. As for Prince William, "I've often heard him say, 'There's been too much talk about that. We need to see some action,'" said William Hague, who works with the Prince of Wales on the Royal Foundation's United for Wildlife initiative (via the Times). Princess Diana was open about her thoughts and feelings in a way the public hadn't seen before with royalty, and while speaking to journalists in South Africa during his 2024 Earthshot Prize trip, William said he wants to make the monarchy feel more relatable to the younger generation. "I can only describe what I'm trying to do and that's trying to do it differently and I'm trying to do it for my generation," he said. "I'm doing it with maybe a smaller r in the royal, if you like, that's maybe a better way of saying it."

Prince William Announces New Appearance With an Unexpected Sidekick Instead of Princess Kate
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. As the future King, Prince William not only holds the title of Prince of Wales, but he's also known as the Duke of Cornwall—and on Tuesday, June 3, Kensington Palace announced William be marking a royal first. The Duke of Cornwall will attend The Royal Cornwall Show for the first time on Friday, June 6. But Princess Kate, the Duchess of Cornwall, won't be joining in the fun at the agricultural festival. Prince William's aunt Sophie, the Duchess of Edinburgh—who serves as patron of the Association of Agricultural Show Organisations and vice president of the Royal Cornwall Agricultural Association—will join him at the show on Friday. The Duchess of Edinburgh has been married to William's uncle Prince Edward since 1999 and shares a close relationship with the Prince of Wales and his family. She's said to have been an especially strong support for the Princess of Wales as she battled cancer in 2024. William, who serves as patron of the Royal Cornwall Agricultural Association, will be visiting the event with Sophie "to celebrate and highlight the very best in Cornish heritage and tradition through agriculture, food and drink, entertainment and competition," per Kensington Palace. The duo will first enjoy some local food and drink at the Royal Cornwall Food and Farming Pavilion, featuring Cornish favorites like jams, cheeses, gin and other delicacies. The royals will then head their separate ways to focus on their individual causes. Prince William will visit hubs focusing on rural mental health and nature partnerships, and will also present the Duke of Cornwall's award for sustainable approaches to farming, forestry and/or food production. As for Sophie, who last visited the show in 2014, she'll visit two of her patronages, Linking Environment and Farming, and Girl Guides, who have helped run the Royal Cornwall Show for many years. While Princess Kate won't be joining them at the event, it's expected she'll participate in The King's annual birthday parade, Trooping the Colour, next Saturday, June 14.
