Both dried and preserved flowers have experienced a surge in popularity in recent years. Many are choosing them over fresh flowers as event and home decor. They’re proving a popular choice amongst wedding organisers too!
Flowers are a go-to gift for many. Flowers can convey a message when words don’t seem enough. They’re perfect for letting someone know you care, as congratulatory and celebratory gifts and as a housewarming present. They’re a truly versatile gift! In this article we’ll explore why dried and preserved flowers are a great choice for gifting!
Dried and preserved flowers produce less waste than fresh flowers due to how long they last. This means they do not need to be refreshed as often, minimising the need to transport fresh flowers. Dried and preserved flowers do not need watering. No requirement for water consumption makes these flowers a more eco-friendly option than fresh flowers. They’re the perfect gift for eco-conscious friends and family.
One of the great benefits of dried and preserved flowers is that your floral choice is not bound by seasonality. If the favourite flower of your gift recipient is a summer blooming flower, but you’re gifting in winter, don’t worry! With dried and preserved flowers, they’re available year-round. As they’re much longer-lasting than fresh flowers, your gift will be enjoyed for a much longer time than a fresh floral arrangement.
Preserved flowers are available in a number of colourways, including those not natural to that flower. That means you’re able to match your floral gift to compliment their home decor, for example.
Unlike fresh flowers, you don’t need to worry about pollen allergies! If the recipient of your floral gift suffers from allergies, dried and preserved flowers are the answer! Pollen is removed during the drying and preserving process. This means your gift recipient can enjoy the benefits of a floral arrangement without ill-effects.
If your gift recipient is a busy person, they’ll love the low maintenance requirement of these flowers. No pruning or refreshing of water is required. The floral arrangement will look as good as the day it was gifted for months or even years! Simply display the flowers out of direct sunlight, and handle them with care, and your blooms will remain beautiful.
