Hydrangea Medium Blue Artificial Flowers

Blue Artificial Hydrangea With A Full Mophead Bloom

There is a particular quiet to a hydrangea. The colour of coastal mornings, of old blue-and-white china, of a vase on a guest-room dresser that has always been there. Our blue artificial hydrangea carries that same gentle presence, without the drop and fade of a fresh stem. One full mophead in a vase and a whole sideboard softens. A few gathered together and the room feels considered.

Fabulous Flowers has been a trusted Cape Town florist since 1999, and this piece sits within our silk flowers range. The bloom is a layered cluster of small four-petal florets, medium blue through the centre with ivory highlights at the edges, on a tall leafy stem.

Silk Hydrangea Stems For Coastal And Classic Interiors

One full hydrangea mophead in medium blue and ivory, with mid-green leaves along the stem. Beautiful alone in a tall clear vase, or layered into an artificial flower bouquet arrangement with a soft pink Olivia rose for contrast, or kept tonal with a soft-pink lisianthus and grey-green eucalyptus.

How To Style Faux Hydrangea At Home

Hydrangeas love a wide, low vase with room for the head to sit gently on the rim. A single ginger jar with one to three stems is a timeless sideboard arrangement. Cluster five to seven in a larger urn for an entrance. Pair the blue with a cabbage rose in pink pearl if you want a classic blue-and-pink composition, or keep it calm with just hydrangea and greenery.

Care For Your Silk Hydrangea

Dust gently every few weeks with a soft cloth or a hairdryer on the cool setting. Keep out of direct sun to protect the colour. That is the whole routine.

Why A Silk Hydrangea Earns Its Place

Fresh hydrangea is thirsty and wilts fast. It is beautiful for a few days and then it is sagging. A quality silk stem is the lasting version for anyone who wants the look in the room year round — a housewarming in a coastal home, a considered hostess gift, a piece for a guest-room dresser that always looks cared for. Buy one to test the quality. For a fuller statement, order three or five and cluster them together.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this artificial hydrangea look real?

In our view, yes. The individual florets are layered rather than flat, the colour shifts from medium blue at the centre to ivory at the edges the way a real hydrangea does, and the leaves sit on the stem with the proper veining. From a few steps away you would not tell it is not fresh.

How big is the bloom?

It is a full mophead, the kind of head you see on a mature garden hydrangea in summer. Exact diameter TBC — we will update this answer once we have measured the stem.

How long do artificial flowers last compared to fresh hydrangea?

Kept indoors and out of direct sunlight, silk hydrangeas hold their colour for years with almost no maintenance. Fresh hydrangeas are famously thirsty and start to wilt within a day or two in a vase if the stems are not prepared and watered constantly. A silk stem removes all of that.

What pairs well with blue hydrangea?

A classic blue-and-pink composition works beautifully: pair with a soft pink Olivia rose or a cabbage rose in pink pearl. For a calmer blue-and-green palette, stick to hydrangea with grey-green eucalyptus. Hydrangea also holds its own on its own, clustered in a ginger jar with no other stems.

Can I use artificial hydrangea outdoors?

Indoor or covered-patio use only. Direct sun fades silk flowers over time and rain will damage the florets. A protected shaded veranda is fine. Full South African sun is not.

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.
