Description
This is a single artificial chrysanthemum stem, 75cm tall and 22cm across at its widest, carrying two full, many-layered blooms and one closed bud on a slender branching stem. The petals are green and gather tightly towards the heart of each flower, and the leaves have serrated edges and clear veining, so the whole stem reads as a cut garden flower rather than a decorative pick. It is made of 80% polyester, 10% iron and 10% polyethylene, and it weighs only 0.06KG.
At 75cm this is a long stem, tall enough to give height to a floor vase or a tall vase on a hallway console or sideboard without the bulk of a full bouquet. On its own it makes an airy, unfussy display on a mantelpiece or a bedroom chest of drawers; several together build into a fuller arrangement for a living room or a dining table centrepiece. Its green blooms sit comfortably beside other faux greenery and dried stems. Unlike a cut flower, it does not wilt, so it suits the places where you would rather not keep replacing flowers: an entrance, a landing or a guest room that is not used every week.
It needs a little preparation before use: the maker asks that the stem be trimmed and folded into place, which means you can shorten it to the height of your vase and settle the leaves and flowerheads where you want them. Handle it gently, as the leaves and flowerheads can break if treated roughly. For styling, stand it slightly off centre in a narrow-necked vase so the two blooms fan out either side of the bud, or gather several stems at staggered heights for a looser, just-picked look.
