Artificial Red Flowers

Red isn't measured out like any other color: sometimes a single stem is enough, and a whole bouquet becomes the focal point of the room. This collection brings together open or still-closed roses, peonies, ranunculus and the trailing foliage that accompanies them.

Choosing your red

The reds in the collection range from true crimson to more muted shades close to burgundy. A bright red works well in a light room with white or gray walls, where it reads perfectly. A deep red pairs better with dark wood and warm textiles, extending them rather than contrasting with them.

Closed buds and open blooms

The same rose comes here both closed and open, and it is this mix that makes a bouquet believable. Place the full blooms at the heart of the arrangement, at eye level, and the buds around the edges, slightly higher. A bouquet made only of open flowers immediately reads as decor.

Foliage does half the work

Trailing amaranth breaks up the roundness of the bouquet and gives it a natural downward fall. The metallic-effect fern, more graphic, lightens a mass of red without adding any color. Plan on roughly as much foliage as flowers: that is what avoids a compact, sheaf-like look.

Frequently asked questions

Will red clash with my decor?

It pairs effortlessly with neutral tones, white, gray, beige, as well as with wood. On an already colorful wall, limit yourself to a few stems in a clear vase.

Which vase should I choose for these stems?

An opaque vase, matte or stoneware, draws the eye back to the flower. Clear glass works too, as long as the stems are kept neat and well aligned.

Does the color hold up in the light?

Direct, prolonged exposure to sunlight eventually dulls rich shades. So place your arrangements slightly back from a south-facing window.
