Description
This artificial chrysanthemum stem stands 64cm tall and spreads to 20cm across, branching near the top into three pink flower heads. Two are fully open blooms with fine, pointed petals layered around the centre, and the third is a smaller, tighter head, which gives the stem the look of a flower picked at different stages. Deeply cut leaves sit between the heads, and a long, slender stem runs beneath them, so it reads as a cut flower for a vase rather than a potted plant. It is made of 80% polyester, 10% iron and 10% polyethylene and weighs just 0.04KG.
A single stem of this height suits a tall bottle or bud vase on a hallway console, a sideboard, a mantelpiece or a dining table, where the three heads rise well clear of the neck. It also sits happily on a windowsill, a bedside table or the corner of a desk, and it can be gathered with a few more stems for a fuller bunch. Because an artificial stem needs no watering and does not wilt, it suits the places fresh flowers tend to be forgotten: a guest room, a holiday let, an office reception or a shelf that is out of daily reach. The soft pink works as a gentle touch of colour in a neutral room.
The maker asks that the stem be trimmed and folded into place before use, so plan to cut it to the height your vase needs and to bend the branches and leaves until each head faces the way you want. Handle it with care while you do this, as the maker notes the leaves and flower heads can break. As a practical styling note, trim it so the lowest leaf sits just clear of the vase opening, then turn the two open blooms outward towards the room and let the smaller head lean slightly back.
