Description
This is a single artificial chrysanthemum stem, 101cm tall and 24cm across, carrying five white flowerheads on slender branching stems. Each bloom is a full, rounded head of layered petals, set among small, fresh-looking leaves, so the whole piece reads as a cut garden branch rather than one lone flower. It is made from 80% polyester, 10% iron and 10% polyethylene, and at 0.08KG it adds almost nothing to the weight of whatever vase you choose.
At 101cm tall, it is a stem for a tall floor vase, or for a deep vessel standing on a sideboard or console table. One stem on its own gives a loose, airy line in a hallway or beside a bookcase; several together make a fuller arrangement for a living room or a bedroom. White blooms sit easily against plain walls and mix well with dried grasses or other faux greenery. Because it is artificial, it keeps its flowers through every season, which suits a holiday let, an office reception or anyone who would rather not replace cut flowers every week.
The maker asks that it be handled with care, as the leaves and flowerheads can break, and that the stem be trimmed and folded into place before use. In practice that means cutting the main stem to the height your vase needs, then gently easing each side branch into position so the blooms sit apart rather than bunched together. For a natural look, let the tallest bloom rise well clear of the rim and turn the side branches so a flowerhead faces the room from each side.

Frequently Asked
How tall is the chrysanthemum stem?
It is 101cm tall and 24cm across, so it suits a tall floor vase or a deep vessel on a sideboard rather than a small posy vase.
What materials make up the stem?
The stem is made from 80% polyester, 10% iron and 10% polyethylene, and it weighs just 0.08KG, so it is very light to place and move.
Can I cut it shorter?
Yes. The maker says the stem must be trimmed before use, so you can cut it down to suit the height of your vase.
How many flowers does the stem have?
Each stem carries five full, white flowerheads on branching side stems, with small leaves along its length that fill out the shape.
How should I care for it?
Handle it gently, as the maker notes that the leaves and flowerheads can break; trim the stem and fold the branches into place before use, taking your time over each one.
Is it a single stem or a bunch?
It is one artificial stem carrying five blooms; for a fuller display, several stems can be grouped together in one wide vase.
