What is a Thanksgiving centerpiece called?

The traditional Thanksgiving centerpiece is called a cornucopia, sometimes also referred to as a Horn of Plenty. In ancient Greece and Rome, the cornucopia was associated with a nourishment and a bountiful harvest. That that’s still true today  as families across America adorn their tables with Thanksgiving floral centerpieces, or cornucopia filled with fruits and Thanksgiving treats.

Proflowers is proud to continue the tradition of the cornucopia. We offer a traditional horn of plenty shaped basket filled with gorgeous autumn flowers as well as modern takes on the traditional design, featuring geometric pottery and succulents that make striking choices for your Thanksgiving table arrangement.  

What flowers do you use for a Thanksgiving centerpiece?

The best flowers for a Thanksgiving centerpiece are those that reflect the vibrant hues of the leaves outside. These include golden sunflowers, fiery orange roses, and playful auburn daisies. The chill in the air, the shorter days, and the golden, red, and orange leaves are all staples of the season. No Thanksgiving flower centerpiece is complete without a nod to these quintessential fall themes. For a fun, unique option, consider complementing your orange flower arrangements with joyful yellow roses. Orange lilies, sunflowers, yellow roses, and bronze chrysanthemums all reflect the bounty of fall.
