Flowers in BloomDazzle kits
BloomDazzle kits include a curated selection of preserved flowers from all over the world - truly a United Nations of flowers. All the flowers will last 2+ years and never need water. Direct sunlight is ok and room temperature is best. The flowers are non-toxic but not edible. Petal+Eon florists hand pick the flowers in each kit, so every kit is slightly different and includes a selection of the below:
Star Flowers (Columbia):
Star flowers are delicate blooms native to warm regions such as Central and South America but now widely cultivated in Asia, especially in India and China, for both fresh and dried use. Their papery petals naturally hold vibrant colors—often white, pink, or purple—even after preservation, making them a favorite for everlasting bouquets and crafts. Historically, star flowers were used in folk medicine and as natural dyes, while in many cultures they symbolized immortality and steadfast love because of their long-lasting form.
Phalaris (Spain):
Preserved phalaris flowers, also known as canary grass, are a charming ornamental grass originally native to the Mediterranean region but now cultivated in many parts of Europe and North America. Recognized for their distinctive oval-shaped, bristled flower heads that range in color from soft greens to natural beige tones (and often dyed for artistic use), phalaris has long been valued for both agricultural and decorative purposes. Historically, the grass was grown as forage for livestock, but over time its sculptural seed heads made it popular in dried and preserved floral arrangements, especially in rustic and bohemian designs. When preserved, phalaris retains its structure and beauty for years without water, making it a sustainable and timeless choice for home décor, weddings, and craft projects.
Button Flowers (Ecuador):
Button flowers, often identified with the Gomphrena or globe amaranth family, are small, round blooms that naturally resemble colorful buttons and have been cherished for centuries for their longevity and symbolism. Originally grown in Central America and the Caribbean before spreading to Asia, they are now widely cultivated in India, Thailand, and China, where they thrive in sunny fields. Known in traditional medicine for their soothing properties and even brewed into herbal teas in some cultures, button flowers also carry historic meaning—symbolizing immortality and unchanging love due to their ability to keep their shape and color long after harvest. Today, preserved button flowers are a trending favorite in eco-friendly floral design, adding cheerful pops of texture and color to dried arrangements, wedding décor, and sustainable home styling.
Pineapple Flowers (France):
Pineapple flowers, also known as Xeranthemum annuum or sometimes nicknamed for their spiky, pineapple-like appearance, are striking blooms native to the Mediterranean and parts of Eastern Europe, where they have been cultivated since ancient times for their beauty and resilience. Their layered, papery bracts give them a tropical look, yet they are actually hardy wildflowers prized for their ability to retain color and form when dried—a quality that made them a favorite in Victorian “everlasting” bouquets. Historically, they symbolized cheerfulness and immortality, and today they’re grown in sunny fields across Europe and Asia for use in preserved arrangements.
Bunny Tails (Spain):
Bunny tail flowers (Lagurus ovatus), also known as hare’s-tail grass, are charming ornamental grasses native to the sandy coastal regions of the Mediterranean, particularly Southern Europe and North Africa, where they still grow wild on dunes and hillsides. Their fluffy, tail-like seed heads—soft to the touch and ranging from creamy white to golden beige—have made them a beloved symbol of playfulness and gentle elegance. Historically, they were gathered as lucky charms and woven into rustic decorations, while today they’re widely cultivated in Europe, Asia, and the U.S. for use in dried and preserved arrangements. With their whimsical, cloud-like form, bunny tails are especially popular in modern minimalist and boho-inspired décor, children’s rooms, and wedding designs, offering a sustainable, long-lasting alternative to fresh flowers that never lose their soft appeal.
Baby Bird of Paradise (aka Bell Grass Female; South Africa):
Preserved bell grass female flowers—derived from Cannomois grandis, an evergreen reed native to South Africa—offer a striking and enduring botanical accent. The female plants produce slender stems capped with spindle‑shaped spikelets encased in hard, protective bracts, distinguishing them from the more flamboyant male spherical inflorescences . Grown and harvested for stabilization, these structures preserve their shape and subtle autumnal hues beautifully, making them an elegant addition to dried floral arrangements.
Happy Flowers (US):
Happy Flowers—tiny, straw-like blossoms—are dainty, textured blooms beloved for their whimsical, button-esque appearance and cheerful vibe. Commonly dried and dyed in a variety of vibrant hues, these delicate stems are perfect for weaving into bouquets, accenting floral centerpieces, or embellishing crafts and gift wrap Though often sold as decorative dried botanicals rather than a specific botanical species, they are prized in modern floral design for their durability, ease of use, and ability to retain visual charm without maintenance. Historically, dried and straw flowers gained popularity in preserved arrangements for their longevity—no watering or wilting—and these "happy little blooms" remain especially trendy in boho, rustic, and minimalist décor schemes. Their compact size and joyful aesthetic make them ideal for indoor displays, wedding styling, or sustainable design projects.
Baby's Breath (Spain):
Baby’s breath (Gypsophila paniculata), one of the most beloved filler flowers in the world, is native to Eastern Europe and Central Asia, where it thrives in sunny, chalky soils rich in gypsum—hence its name. Known for its delicate, cloud-like clusters of tiny white or pink blooms, baby’s breath has symbolized everlasting love, innocence, and purity since the Victorian era, making it a wedding staple for centuries. Historically, it was often tucked into bridal bouquets and christening decorations, and its airy appearance earned it the nickname “mist flower” in some cultures. Today, baby’s breath enjoys a stylish revival not only in weddings but also in modern minimalist and boho-chic décor, often dyed in bold contemporary colors like blue, pink, or even metallic shades to match current design trends. Its resilience and long-lasting nature—especially when preserved—make it both a timeless classic and a topical favorite in sustainable floral design.
Caspia (Spain):
Caspia flowers (Limonium), sometimes called “sea lavender” or “misty statice,” are airy, cloud-like blooms native to the Mediterranean, Central Asia, and coastal regions where salty soils allow them to thrive. Their tiny, star-shaped blossoms in shades of lavender, purple, white, or blue sit atop slender branching stems, creating a soft, ethereal texture that has made them a favorite filler flower for centuries. Historically, caspia has been valued for its ability to retain both shape and subtle color when dried, often used in Victorian “everlasting” arrangements and symbolic of remembrance and lasting affection. Today, preserved caspia is especially popular in boho and rustic décor, lending a light, feathery accent to bouquets, wreaths, and dried floral art. Its resilience and naturally salty heritage make it a sustainable, low-maintenance option that connects modern design trends with a long tradition of enduring beauty.
Lavender (France, China):
Lavender (Lavandula angustifolia), one of the world’s most recognizable and cherished flowers, is native to the Mediterranean but now widely cultivated in France, England, and even the U.S. for its fragrant purple blooms and silvery-green foliage. Celebrated since ancient Roman times—when it was used to scent baths, linens, and medicines—lavender has long symbolized calm, purity, and devotion. Its essential oils have been prized for centuries in herbal medicine and aromatherapy, while fields of French Provence have become iconic for their breathtaking summer landscapes. Today, preserved lavender remains a top choice for weddings, home décor, and wellness products, offering a soothing fragrance and rustic elegance that never fades. With its blend of beauty, history, and enduring popularity, lavender continues to bridge timeless tradition with modern lifestyle trends centered on sustainability and natural living.
Pampas Grass (Brazil, Colombia):
Pampas flowers, more commonly known as pampas grass (Cortaderia selloana), are majestic plumes native to the vast grasslands of South America—especially Argentina, Brazil, and Uruguay—where they grow in sweeping, sunlit fields. Their tall, feathery plumes, ranging from creamy beige to soft pink tones, have long been admired for their dramatic yet elegant presence. Historically, pampas grass was used ornamentally in European gardens after being introduced in the 19th century, prized for its resilience and showy form. In recent years, it has surged back into popularity as a staple of modern interior design, weddings, and event styling, embodying the boho-chic aesthetic while offering a sustainable, long-lasting alternative to fresh blooms. Its striking texture and scale make pampas an enduring favorite for creating both minimalistic and luxurious arrangements, perfectly bridging rustic tradition with contemporary décor trends.
Dwarf Pampas (Colombia, China):
Dwarf pampas flowers come from compact varieties of Cortaderia selloana specially bred to bring the dramatic beauty of pampas grass into smaller spaces. Native to South America’s grasslands but now cultivated worldwide, these plumes typically grow just 3–6 feet tall—compared to the towering 10-foot standards—making them ideal for gardens, patios, and floral arrangements where a softer scale is desired. With their feathery tufts in shades of cream, blush, and champagne, dwarf pampas offer the same boho-chic elegance as their full-sized relatives but in a more versatile form. Introduced to European and American horticulture in the 19th century alongside traditional pampas, they’ve recently enjoyed a revival thanks to sustainable décor and wedding trends. Today, preserved dwarf pampas plumes are prized for their ability to add cozy texture and airy movement to modern interiors, while being more practical and manageable than their giant cousins.
