Cape Town Protea Bouquet

Experience the Splendour of South Africa with The Cape Town Protea Bouquet

Unearth the allure of South Africa's indigenous blooms with our Cape Town Protea Bouquet, an array of vibrant proteas encapsulating this remarkable land's spirit. These magnificent blossoms don't just make a stunning addition to any decor. Proteas carry a unique symbolism that makes them the perfect gift for the extraordinary individuals in your life.

Embrace the Metaphor of Strength and Change

Named after the Greek God Proteus, a known shape-shifter, the Protea symbolises diversity, transformation, and courage. It's a resilient bloom that requires fire to release its seeds, embodying strength, tenacity, and the ability to rise above adversity. Gift this bouquet to inspire, motivate and share a powerful message with your loved ones.

Discover a Timeless Piece of Botanical History

Proteas are ancient, with a lineage dating back about 300 million years. With over 1500 distinct species varying in size, shape, and hue, these blooms tell a story as old as time. Our Cape Town Protea Bouquet offers a slice of this natural history, combining 12 meticulously selected proteas nestled amongst vibrant fynbos greenery, all presented in Fabulous' signature gift wrapping.

Fabulous Flowers and Gifts Fresh Flowers Care Instructions

Fresh Flowers

Find a Vase: Your lovely blooms need a drink! Put them in your favourite vase with fresh water as soon as possible.

Trim Those Stems: Keep those stems fresh by cutting them at an angle. This allows more water up the stem. Checking and trimming the stems every few days will keep them sound.

Gently Strip Leaves: Remove any excess leaves, especially from the part of the stem that will be submerged. This helps to avoid rot and bacteria, which can shorten your flowers' life span.

Remove Old Blooms: Drooping flowers release ethylene gas, which may accelerate the aging of other flowers. Strip off any dead or dying flowers to keep the rest of the bouquet looking bright and fresh.

Keep Them Cool: Place your flowers away from heat sources such as heaters, televisions, or ovens to retain the beauty of your flowers.

Clean Water: Always place your flowers in clean water. Refresh your vase with water daily or at least every second day. 

Gift Boxes

Storage Tips: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to keep contents in perfect condition.

Handling with Care: Handle this box gently so as not to damage the delicate items inside.

Freshening: If your gift includes foods or beverages, please refer to the individual product use-by and expiry dates and the informational materials regarding storage recommendations:

Plants

Watering: Ensure your plants are hydrated but avoid overwatering. Check the soil's moisture regularly and water it when the top inch feels dry.

Light: Place your plants in a spot where they receive the appropriate amount of light. Some prefer bright, indirect light, while others thrive in low-light conditions.

Feeding: Feed your plants with a balanced fertiliser every few weeks during the growing season to keep them healthy and vibrant.

Pruning: Regularly remove dead leaves and trim back overgrown branches to encourage new growth and maintain the plant's shape.

Humidity: Some plants thrive in high humidity. If needed, mist your plants occasionally or place a humidifier nearby to create a favourable environment.

Artificial Flowers and Plants

Dusting: Your artificial flowers and botanicals should be lightly dusted regularly with a soft cloth or feather duster.

Light Washing: For deeper cleaning, please use a cloth lightly dampened with water and a small amount of mild detergent. Gently wipe the leaves and petals.

Avoid Direct: Sunlight Do not place under direct sunlight in order to prevent colours from fading.

Fluff and Arrange: Just fluff up petals and leaves to remain fluffy. Set them in position as desired to look natural.

Personalize: Gift your flowers, Gift Boxes, and Artificial Flowers and Plants with the Care They Deserve; they will be a Source of Joy and Elegance for you. The charm of fresh flowers, the delight of a thoughtful gift box, and the endless beauty of an artificial plant—all special moments created by Fabulous Flowers and Gifts.
