Closed White Protea

Description

Description
The Closed White Protea brings one of nature's most architectural blooms indoors without any of the upkeep. This artificial flower stem captures the protea in its closed form, with the tightly layered petals gathered into a neat cup shape that tapers to a soft point. Each petal has been shaped to catch light the way a real bloom would, with subtle tonal shifts across the cream and white surface and a gentle curl at the edges that keeps the head from looking flat or moulded.

Standing at 67cm tall with a head width of around 8cm and a depth of 12cm, the closed white protea holds its own in a tall vase or works alongside greenery and grasses in a mixed arrangement. The stem is made from plastic with a slightly textured finish that mimics the woody quality of a garden-picked flower. Pair a single stem with eucalyptus and dried pampas for a pared-back look, or group three or five together for something fuller. It suits a hallway console, a mantel, or a bedside table where fresh flowers would struggle to last.

Because it is faux, this stem needs no water and no trimming. Keep it away from prolonged direct sunlight to help the white tones stay bright over time, and dust the petals occasionally with a soft brush or a gentle shake. The stem can be bent a little to adjust the angle of the head, so you can position it to sit exactly as you want within your vase or display without any fuss.

Frequently Asked
Does it look like a real protea?

Yes. The closed white protea has layered petals with tonal shading and softly curled edges, so from a step back and up close it reads convincingly as a fresh bloom.

How do I mix it with other stems?

It pairs well with greenery, grasses and dried textures such as pampas or eucalyptus. Use a single stem for a minimal display or group several for a fuller vase arrangement.

How do I clean it?

Dust the petals now and then with a soft brush, a hairdryer on a cool setting, or a light shake to lift any settled dust from the surface.

Does it need water?

No. As an artificial flower stem it needs no water and no trimming, so you can simply place it in a vase and leave it.

Will it shed or fade?

The petals will not drop or shed. To keep the white looking its best, position it away from strong, direct sunlight over long periods.
