{"product_id":"hydrangea-artificial-stem-red","title":"Hydrangea Artificial Stem - Red","description":"\u003ch5\u003eDescription\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis hydrangea artificial stem stands 122cm tall: one long stem that branches into slender side stems, each carrying a cluster of small red flowers at its tip. The clusters sit at different heights, so the spray looks open and airy rather than packed, and the long, bare lower stem gives you plenty of length for a tall vase. It is made from iron, polyethylene and PVC, the flowers have a colour-dyed finish, and the whole stem weighs just 0.17KG.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt 122cm, this is a stem for the floor: a tall vase or a deep basket beside a sofa, in a hallway or at the end of a bed. One stem on its own looks clean and graphic against a plain wall, while several together make a fuller arrangement on a mantelpiece or a sideboard. Because it is artificial, it needs no water and does not wilt, which makes it useful wherever fresh flowers are hard to keep: a dim landing, a holiday let, a shop counter. The stem can be trimmed, so it also works cut down in a shorter vase on a desk or a windowsill.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe maker's care notes ask for a little preparation. Before use, trim the stem to the height you want and fold the side stems and flowerheads into place, opening them out so each cluster has its own space. Handle the flowerheads with care to avoid breaking them. Shaping it is best done where the stem will stand, so you can judge how the clusters fall. For a practical finish, stand it in a vase with a narrow neck or a heavy base: the stem is tall and light, and a weighted vase keeps it upright while the clusters fan out at the top.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e122cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDiameter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e8cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIron, Polyethylene, PVC\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRed\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFinish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColour-dyed\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCare\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHandle with care to avoid breakage of the leaves\/flowerheads.
