Description
This green craspedia stem brings one of nature's most playful shapes indoors without any of the upkeep. Each round bloom sits at the top of a slender stalk, formed as a tight sphere of tiny buds packed closely together to create that familiar drumstick silhouette. The soft green colouring runs evenly across the surface, and the gentle texture of the clustered heads catches the light much like the real thing. As an artificial flower stem it holds its form year after year, so the shape stays neat whether it lives on a windowsill or in the centre of a busy table.
Standing 60cm tall with a bloom around 7cm across, the green craspedia stem works well grouped in threes or fives for a bold, graphic look, or slipped in among softer flowers to add height and contrast. Try it alongside grasses, eucalyptus or paler blooms in a clear glass vase, or let a bundle stand alone in a narrow bottle for a simple, modern display. It suits kitchens, hallways and desks equally, and the plastic construction means it copes happily with bright rooms and warm spots.
Caring for it takes almost no effort. There is no water to change and no wilting to watch for, so you can leave it in place and enjoy it. Give the heads an occasional dust with a soft cloth or a light blow to keep them looking fresh, and bend the stem gently to sit at the angle you prefer within your arrangement.

Frequently Asked
Does it look like a real craspedia?
Yes. The round heads are built from many small buds pressed together, giving the same texture and drumstick shape you see in fresh stems, and the even green tone reads convincingly from across a room.
How should I style it?
Group several together for a graphic effect, or mix them with grasses, foliage and softer blooms to add height and structure. A clear vase shows off the stems, while a slim bottle suits a single stem.
How do I clean it?
Wipe the heads gently with a soft dry cloth now and then, or give them a light blow to lift any dust. Avoid soaking or scrubbing so the surface stays intact.
Does it need water?
No water is needed. Simply set it in place and adjust the stem to your liking. You can bend it slightly to fit the shape of your arrangement.
Will it shed or fade?
The blooms are firmly formed and will not drop petals. Keeping it out of harsh, direct sunlight for long periods helps the green colour stay looking its best.
