Maples like this Acer Japonicum were introduced to Europe from Japan in the early 19th century. When Europeans 'discovered' the oriental art of bonsai, a miniature maple was the inevitable result. Continuing the tradition
- while bringing it conveniently up-to-date
- this delightful artificial pot plant captures all the charm of the original, yet needs no watering or nail-scissor pruning.

Exquisite & beautifully lifelike, our poppy with bud stem is quite unforgettable. A lovely flower in its own right, poppies have become poignant symbols of sacrifice & remembrance. The image of that great river of red flowers around the Tower of London last year is one that will stay with many people for a long time. But poppies aren't only about regret. They also stand proudly defiant in the aftermath of destruction with a lasting message of hope. ...

Opinions differ on the meanings attached to various flowers. But when it comes to red roses it seems floriologists (people who study the language of flowers) agree: they symbolise true love
- passionate & undying. The emotion is eternal but as for those red roses... If they're the organic variety, that declaration of love will only last a couple of weeks or so. Bloom roses on the other hand can boast serious longevity. The lovely examples shown here
- accompanied by ivy & snowberry
- will retain their 'just-cut' freshness for a long long time. Which is why this arrangement is ideal for Christmas...and New Year...and Spring... Summer & Autumn too. Love that's constant, that never fades nor wanes
- that's what Bloom red roses mean.
