Description
This artificial hydrangea stem carries one full, rounded flowerhead in orange, made up of many small, layered petals, on a jointed stem with broad leaves just beneath the bloom. It stands 46cm tall and measures 15cm across at its widest, so a single stem has real presence: one is enough to fill the neck of a vase without any other flowers. It is made from iron, polyethylene and PVC and weighs just 0.04KG.
Because it is artificial, it needs no watering, which makes it a good choice for the spots where fresh flowers rarely last: a hallway console, a high bookshelf, a mantelpiece, the corner of a desk or a guest bedroom that sits empty for weeks at a time. It suits anyone who wants flowers in the house all year without the weekly trip to the florist. At 46cm tall, it sits well in a medium to tall vase or a tall glass bottle, and several stems grouped together make a fuller, rounder display for a dining table or sideboard. The orange tone brings a note of autumn colour to a room, and it mixes happily with dried grasses or other faux stems for a looser, more natural arrangement.
It has a colour-dyed finish, and the maker asks for two things: handle it with care so the leaves and flowerhead do not break, and trim the stem and fold it into place before use. Trimming is useful in its own right, because it lets you cut the stem to the height of the vase you already own, so a shorter jar or pot works as well as a tall vase. When you fold it into place, angle the head so it leans gently out over the rim and set it against a plain wall, where the rounded orange bloom shows at its best. The styling props shown are not included.
