SPECIFICATIONS
Technical sheet
Packed in boxes. It is the largest stem in our fresh greens range.
Volume that goes further
A single stem fills the space other palms need five to cover. Its open, full shape gives structure and character from the start, so an arrangement comes together with fewer pieces and the budget goes further.
The leaf is soft to the touch but the midrib is firm: it handles quickly on the design table without snapping, and it copes with the thermal shock between cold room and the customer’s hands. Less waste in inventory.
Its deep green works as a canvas: it balances the neutral palettes of dried and preserved material, steadies and lifts the colour of the focal flower, and builds depth when mixed with round-leaved foliage.
SIZE COMPARISON
Pick the size your arrangement needs
Same hand, same distance, no camera tricks. This is how the difference looks when the three sit side by side.
