Description
This cream cosmos spray brings the soft, open charm of real cosmos into your home without any of the upkeep. Each bloom is moulded and coloured to mirror the natural flower, with slightly cupped petals in a gentle cream shade that fades to a paler centre. The petals carry the faint ridging and delicate edges you would find on a fresh stem, and the small buds and green foliage along the length add to the true-to-life look. From a step back, this artificial flower stem reads as freshly cut, which is exactly what you want from a good faux bloom.
Standing 36cm tall with a spread of 22cm and a depth of 17cm, the spray suits a bud vase on a windowsill, a jug on the kitchen table, or a cluster of vessels on a mantel. The plastic construction keeps the whole stem light and sturdy, and the wired stems can be gently bent to open out the shape or angle the heads toward the light. Mix a few cream cosmos sprays together for a fuller display, or pair them with taller grasses and eucalyptus for contrast in a mixed arrangement. They also sit happily alongside other cream and white florals for a soft, tonal grouping.
Caring for the spray is simple. There is no water needed, so you avoid cloudy vases and drooping heads. Dust the petals occasionally with a soft brush or a gentle shake, and keep the stem out of harsh direct sunlight over long periods to help the cream tone stay true. Arrange, reshape, and rearrange as often as you like.

Frequently Asked
Does it really look like a fresh cosmos?
Yes. The petals are shaped with the same open, slightly cupped form as the real flower, and the cream tone deepens toward the centre. The buds and foliage add to the natural effect.
How should I style the cream cosmos spray?
Group two or three together in a jug for fullness, or mix with grasses and eucalyptus for height and contrast. It also works well in a tonal display with other cream and white blooms.
How do I clean it?
Dust the petals occasionally with a soft brush or give the stem a gentle shake. This keeps the surface looking fresh without any fuss.
Does it need water?
No. This is an artificial flower stem, so it needs no water at all. Simply arrange it and leave it in place.
Will it shed or fade?
The petals will not drop as fresh flowers do. To help the cream shade stay true, keep the stem away from prolonged direct sunlight.
