{"product_id":"poppy-artificial-stem-beige","title":"Poppy Artificial Stem - Beige","description":"\u003ch5\u003eDescription\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is a single artificial poppy stem in beige, standing 104cm tall with a flowering head that spreads 16cm across. From one long main stem, slender branches twist and wave upwards, each finishing in an open poppy flower or a closed bud, with a few small leaves along the way. The petals are softly ruffled and gather around a contrasting centre, much as a real poppy's do. It is made from 80% polyester, 10% iron and 10% polyethylene, and at 0.06KG it is very light in the hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt 104cm it has the height for a tall floor vase, and it holds its own as a single stem where a fuller bunch would crowd a sideboard or a narrow hall table. It works just as well tucked into a mixed arrangement, where the wandering side branches reach out beyond the other flowers and loosen the outline of the bouquet. Because it is artificial it needs no water, so it suits a hallway, a landing or a bedroom shelf where fresh flowers would be a chore to keep. The beige tone sits comfortably with other muted stems, grasses and soft foliage, and with plain stoneware or glass vases.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBefore use, the maker directs that the stem be trimmed to length and its branches folded into place, and this is the moment to angle each flower and bud just as you like. The leaves and flowerheads are delicate, so handle the stem gently while shaping or moving it to avoid breaking them. For a relaxed look, leave it long in a narrow vase and let the side branches lean outwards, or shorten it and gather it loosely with a few other stems for a fuller bunch. The styling props shown are not included.\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\u003e104cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDiameter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e16cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e80% Polyester, 10% Iron, 10% Polyethylene\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBeige\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.
