Flower and Vase Promotions

Roses, ranunculus, hydrangeas and peonies cut once and for all: this selection brings together our artificial stems and the vases that hold them, from clear glass to matte ceramic.

Open rose or closed bud

Several of our roses come in both forms: Sophie and David as closed buds, Diane, Sarah and Sophia as open blooms. The bud gives a graphic silhouette, the open bloom adds volume. A successful bouquet mixes the two, with mostly buds when the vase is narrow.

The vase before the bouquet

The neck is what decides. A narrow neck holds three upright stems, a flared neck calls for a wider mass so the center is not left empty. Clear glass shows the stems and demands regular lines, while ceramic and metal hide them and are more forgiving.

Foliage to finish

Eucalyptus plays the role of florist's greenery: it softens the outline and hides the point where the stems cross. Add it last, one branch on each side, letting it fall slightly lower than the flowers. Dahlias and hydrangeas, being wider, go in the center to form the heart of the bouquet.

Frequently asked questions

How many stems should go in a vase?

Three to five stems are enough in a narrow-necked vase, seven to nine in a wide neck. An odd number always makes a more natural arrangement.

How do I keep the colors intact?

Keep the arrangement away from a south-facing window, as direct light eventually fades the shades. The rest of the time, regular dusting with a dry cloth is all it needs.

Are these flowers suitable for a bathroom?

Yes, humidity is no problem for them and they need no light at all. Simply dry the petals when steam settles on them.
