{"product_id":"large-white-protea","title":"Large White Protea","description":"\u003ch5\u003eDescription\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis large white protea brings one of nature's boldest blooms indoors without any of the upkeep. The central flower head opens into a wide crown of pointed petals, each one tipped with a soft blush of shadow that catches the light just as a fresh protea would. The dense middle is packed with fine, feathery detail, while the outer bracts curve and taper for that sculptural look the protea is known for. Standing at 73cm tall, this artificial flower stem makes a real impression on its own or as the anchor of a larger display.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMade from plastic, the petals and leaves hold a realistic texture, with subtle veining and a matte finish that avoids the plastic-looking shine you often see. The large white protea suits hallway consoles, mantelpieces and dining tables, and the neutral white tone works with almost any interior. Slip a single stem into a tall ceramic vase for a pared-back feel, or mix several with eucalyptus, dried grasses and softer filler blooms for a fuller arrangement. The bendable stem lets you angle the head to sit well within your chosen vessel, so you can build the shape you want.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCaring for this stem takes almost no effort. There is no water needed, so you can place it anywhere without worrying about spills or wilting. Dust occasionally with a soft cloth or a gentle blast from a hairdryer on a cool setting to keep the petals looking fresh. With no shedding and no fading in normal indoor light, it stays looking its best year after year.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFlower\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProtea\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWhite\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePlastic\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e73cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e21cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e21cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes it look like a real protea?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes.
