Sugarbush Flower

This beautiful bunch is made up of dried Sugarbush Flower, also known as Protea compacta.

Unwrap your bunch, cut the twine off and trim the stems to your desired length. Your chosen vase should be around two-thirds the height of your arrangement to ensure your bouquet is well supported. You may want to split your bouquet into a few vases to spread them around your house.

Dried Sugarbush flowers are really easy to look after and require little to no maintenance. To keep your bouquet vibrant, place it in a spot out of direct sunlight. It's also best to keep your bouquet out of your bathroom, as the condensation could weaken its stems. We recommend not moving them around too much, as this can cause petals and foliage to drop. Your bouquet will benefit from the occasional dusting with a hairdryer or a small brush. If using a hairdryer hold it a meter away from your flowers, on a cool and light setting.

Keep out of the reach of children and animals. Keep away from soft furnishings as the colour from some stems may transfer.

Sugarbush flowers produce copious amounts of nectar, hence the common name. The nectar was used medicinally to cure coughs and chest complaints in the 19th century.

Our Sugarbush bunch is available in medium size and contains approx. 10 stems, measures approx. 30cm in height. Please note all measurements are approximate. They are a natural product and so can vary.
