Skimmia is that stem. Tight clusters of unopened buds sit above glossy pointed leaves, giving you structure and green in one piece without introducing a competing flower.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe sage tone here is soft and slightly grey, which is more useful than a bright botanical green because it sits behind other colours rather than in front of them. Skimmia is also known as Japanese skimmia or Skimmia japonica, and florists often use it through winter for exactly this purpose.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy You'll Love It\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBud clusters and glossy foliage on a single stem\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA soft grey-green that sits behind other colours rather than competing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUseful as a filler, not just decorative\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWorks through winter arrangements and year-round alike\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eProduct Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeight: approx. 66cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColour: Sage Green\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFaux stem, sold individually\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMaking It Work in Small Spaces\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSkimmia earns its place in a small flat because it does two jobs. Three stems alone in a jug is a complete, quiet arrangement that needs nothing added. Add flowers later and the same three stems become the green base underneath. That flexibility matters when you have one vase rather than six.
