Lilac is all about the cluster. Dozens of tiny four petalled florets packed into a conical head, so from a distance you read the shape and only up close do you see how many individual flowers are in it. This faux version keeps that density, in a soft white with broad heart shaped green leaves down the stem.

At 88cm it is tall enough to carry a vase on its own, and the head sits at the top of a long bare stem, which is what gives it that slightly vintage, gathered-from-the-garden line.

Lilac is also known as syringa or common lilac, so if that is what you have been searching for, this is the same clustered bloom.

Why You'll Love It

  • Densely clustered florets in a soft, non-glaring white
  • Broad heart shaped green leaves for contrast against the bloom
  • Elegant 88cm height that fills a vase on its own
  • Works with pastel palettes and with flat neutrals
  • Pairs easily with magnolia, hydrangea, honesty and foliage

Styling Tips

  • A single stem in a slender glass vase for something refined and minimal.
  • Three or more in a large vessel from our vase collection for an airy centrepiece.
  • In a bridal bouquet alongside blush roses and eucalyptus, where fresh lilac would wilt within hours.
  • Layered into a mantel or console arrangement to add soft height.
  • Combined with greenery or dried stems from the artificial flora range to balance modern and vintage.

Gifting

Lilac has a short season and does not travel well, which makes a faux stem a rather good gift for someone who loves it. Browse the rest of our faux flowers, or get in touch for a custom arrangement.

FAQs

How many stems do I need?
One in a slender glass vase is a refined, minimal display. Three or more in a large ceramic vessel gives you an airy centrepiece, because the heads are full but the stems are open.

What does it pair with?
Magnolia, honesty sprays, hydrangeas and soft greenery. It also sits well against dried stems, where the crisp white lifts everything around it.

Can I trim it?
Yes, with wire cutters. Trim gradually rather than in one go, since the head sits high on a long bare stem and it is easy to take off more than you meant to.

In Short

An 88cm faux white lilac stem with densely clustered florets and broad green foliage. Also known as syringa, it brings height and a soft romantic texture to a vase, and unlike the real thing it is available all year.
