Gardenia Stem, White 64cm Faux Flower

In stock
Sale price$19.00

The gardenia is a flower of curled, overlapping petals wound tight at the centre and opening out in a loose spiral, set against leaves so dark and glossy they look almost lacquered. That contrast is the whole appeal, and this faux version keeps it: a creamy white bloom against deep green foliage on a 64cm stem.

It reads as quietly expensive rather than showy, which makes it useful. One stem in a plain vase does more for a room than three of something busier.

Gardenia is also known as cape jasmine, so if that is what you have been searching for, this is the same curled white bloom.

How many stems do I need?

One in a narrow bud vase is genuinely enough, because the bloom and the dark foliage carry it. Two or three in a sculptural vessel gives you a coffee table or console arrangement without tipping into a bouquet.

What does it pair with?

Roses, ranunculus and dahlias for something romantic. Soft grey green foliage or seeded gum for texture and a cooler tone against the dark leaves.

Can I bend or trim it?

Yes. The stem is wired, so you can angle the bloom to face into the room and cut the stem down with wire cutters to suit a shorter vessel.

Why you will love it

  • Softly curled petals with a natural spiral at the centre
  • Deep glossy green foliage for real contrast against the white
  • A creamy white that flatters neutral and romantic palettes alike
  • Ideal as a single stem, which few faux florals manage
  • Flexible wired stem that bends and trims

  • Colour: white bloom with deep green leaves
  • Stem: flexible and wired

Styling tips

  • Alone in a narrow glass or ceramic bud vase, for something clean and modern.
  • Mixed with roses, ranunculus or dahlias from our faux flowers range for a romantic bouquet.
  • Two or three stems in a sculptural vessel from our vase collection on a coffee or console table.
  • Paired with soft grey green foliage or seeded gum for texture and tone.
  • In a bathroom or on a shelf, where the dark leaves read well against tile and pale timber.

Gifting

A single gardenia stem wrapped with a bud vase is a considered gift that costs less than a bunch of flowers and outlasts one by years. Browse the wider artificial flora range, or get in touch if you would like an arrangement built.

What it comes down to

A 64cm faux gardenia stem with a creamy white curled bloom and deep glossy green foliage, on a flexible wired stem. Also known as cape jasmine, it is one of the few faux florals that genuinely holds a vase on its own.
