Description
This is one artificial palmflower stem in pink, standing 73cm tall and 20cm across at its widest. The flowerhead is a tall cone of pointed, overlapping petals in a soft pink, ringed by a spray of fine, fringed leaves that fan outwards. It sits on a long, knobbly stem with a textured, branch-like finish. It is made from 80% polyethylene and 20% iron and weighs just 0.146KG, so it is easy to lift and move from one vase to the next as the mood takes you.
At 73cm it has the reach of a tall cut stem, so it suits a floor vase or a tall vase on a sideboard, a mantelpiece or a hallway console, where the fringed leaves have room to spread. Used alone it gives a single upright line with a strong silhouette. Added to a mix of faux flowers and foliage, the pink cone lends a bouquet height and a clear point of focus. Because it is artificial it never needs watering and will not wilt, which makes it a good choice for a guest room, a holiday let or a dim corner of the living room where fresh flowers would struggle.
Before use the stem should be trimmed and folded into place, as the maker advises: cut it to suit the height of your vase, then gently ease the leaves and petals into the shape you like. Handle it with care, since the leaves and flowerhead can break if they are bent too hard. For a calm, natural look, pair it with dried grasses or muted greenery in a stoneware or clear glass vase, and let the pink cone sit a little higher than everything around it. The styling props shown are not included.
