Description
This faux cow parsley ammi brings the airy charm of a meadow indoors without any of the upkeep. Each stem is topped with a delicate spray of tiny white florets clustered into flat umbels, mimicking the lacy, umbrella-shaped heads of real ammi found growing along British hedgerows. The soft green stem and slender, feathery foliage give the piece a light, natural feel, while the individual petals catch the light much like the fresh blooms they are modelled on. Standing at a generous 100cm tall, this artificial flower stem has real presence in a tall vase.
Made from durable plastic, the stem measures 10cm across at its widest point and 5cm deep, giving the flower head room to open out naturally. It suits a hallway console, a kitchen worktop or a bedroom dresser, and works beautifully in country-style and pared-back interiors alike. Try grouping three or five stems together for a fuller, wilder look, or mix this faux cow parsley ammi with heavier blooms such as roses or peonies to add height and a soft, textural contrast. The pale florets sit well against both clear glass and stoneware vessels.
Caring for the stem could not be simpler. There is no need for water, so you can place it anywhere without worry of spills or wilting. Dust occasionally with a soft, dry brush or a gentle shake to keep the florets looking crisp. The stem can be bent and angled to suit your arrangement, letting you fan the heads out or draw them closer for a tighter display whenever the mood takes you.

Frequently Asked
How realistic does it look?
Very. The tiny clustered florets and flat, lacy heads closely echo real cow parsley and ammi, and the soft green stem and feathery foliage add to the natural effect, especially when viewed as part of a mixed display.
What does it pair well with?
Its light, airy heads work as a filler alongside fuller blooms like roses, peonies or hydrangeas. Grouping several stems on their own also gives a wild, meadow-inspired look.
How do I clean it?
Dust occasionally with a soft, dry brush, or give it a gentle shake to loosen any settled dust. Avoid soaking the florets, as they are designed to be kept dry.
Does it need water?
No. This is an artificial flower stem, so it needs no water at all. You can place it in a dry vase or fill the vessel with decorative pebbles for stability.
Will it shed or fade?
The florets are securely attached and will not shed like fresh flowers. Kept out of prolonged direct sunlight, the green stem and white blooms will hold their colour well over time.
