Why Are Preserved Flower Domes The New Go-Tos?
When we talk about buying flowers, we usually think of them coming in a bouquet or in a vase. Fresh flowers that come in bouquets wilt a few days later, however. While those that come in or got transferred to a vase require us to tend to them every other day. Then, we saw the rise of preserved flowers, which also made popular new arrangement styles such as bloom boxes and flower domes. While bloom boxes can also be arranged with fresh flowers, flower domes almost always use preserved flowers.
But why are preserved flowers so sought after, and why should we buy preserved flower domes? What makes them any different from a classic fresh flower bouquet other than their arrangement style?
We shall now take a look at some reasons preserved flower domes are the new go-tos!
1. No Hassle
Preserved flower domes, as the name suggests, use preserved flowers. This means that there is no need for the owner of the flower dome to water the flowers and foliage. No other maintenance or care is needed for the flowers to stay in bloom either! You just have to be careful where you place the flower dome – as the casing might be fragile – and voila! You now have the perfect décor in your room!
2. Aesthetically Pleasing
The flowers and foliage in preserved flower domes come in different types and colours, so you are sure to find one where both the flower type and the colour theme are to your preference. Not only that, preserved flower domes are also popular because most of the domes are similar in shape to the one in Beauty and the Beast. This makes preserved flower domes a sort-of homage to the movie!
3. Not Wasteful
As preserved flowers can last up to many years, it means that they have a way longer lifespan than fresh flowers. So, if you are one of those who prefer to not have their flowers go into the trash a week later, preserved flower domes are the one for you! Also, since the cost of a preserved flower dome is to be divided across months or even years, this means that their average cost per day is significantly lesser than that of a fresh flower bouquet which cost is only divided across a few days.
4. Eco-Friendly
The last and perhaps the most important reason to start buying preserved flower domes is that preserved flowers are actually eco-friendly and do not harm the environment! First off, as mentioned above, preserved flowers do not require water, which means we are saving water when we get preserved flower domes instead of fresh flowers. Also, preserved flowers do not require fertilisers or pesticides, hence they do not contribute to chemicals and pollutants in the environment. These factors make preserved flower domes eco-friendly and thus a great product to get considering how polluted Earth currently is!
