This bouquet features two varieties of protea: king protea and blushing bride protea. The pale pink colors are accented by violet waxflowers and ashy blue tetra nuts, which add texture. The King protea is embellished with gold glitter for a fun and whimsical take on this majestic bloom. The overall effect is a bouquet that is both stylish and modern.
- King Protea – The king protea is one of the most spectacular species of protea and is the national flower of South Africa. With a massive bloom size that can reach almost 12 inches in width, the king protea is one of the largest protea species. It has long pink petals that surround a furry center, as well as large leathery leaves. Within a bouquet, it is typically the star of the show.
- Blushing Bride Protea – The blushing bride protea is another stunning species of protea. It is much smaller in size to the King protea. It has delicate white petals that are nearly transparent, and a soft pink center. It is said that these flowers got their name from men wearing them in their buttonholes on the way to propose, thus resulting in a “blushing bride.” Proteas are known for being fall-blooming flowers, making them the perfect choice for fall weddings.
- Tetra Nut – Also known as eucalyptus bell pods, tetra nuts are the flower buds of the species Eucalyptus tetragona, also known as Eucalyptus pleurocarpa. Tetra nuts have a subdued pale blue color, making them an ideal complement to a muted fall color palette.
- Waxflower – The waxflower has purple flowers with white centers. It is an evergreen shrub that can grow up to six feet. Due to its hardiness, it is a popular filler for floral arrangements.
