The protea is the flower people remember from a bouquet. This is the small one, and the green makes it easier to live with than the pink.

The King Small Protea Spray in green carries a single 7cm bloom on a 53cm stem, with the tight, layered bracts and soft centre that give a protea its sculptural, almost architectural look. In green rather than blush, it reads as foliage as much as flower, which is what lets it sit inside a neutral arrangement without taking it over.

Common questions

How many stems do I need?
One is enough in a bud vase, and a protea is one of the few blooms that genuinely holds a vessel on its own. Three gives you a fuller grouping in a wider vase.

What pairs with it?
Eucalyptus, banksia, bunny tails and dried grasses. It is a native-leaning bloom, so it looks most at home alongside other textural, structural stems rather than soft romantic ones.

Can I bend or trim it?
Yes. The stem is wired, so you can angle the head and cut it down with wire cutters to suit a shorter vessel.
