One of the stars of our spring lineup just made its grand entrance — mock orange (philadelphus spp.)! And of course, it’s absolutely bursting with blooms AFTER Mother’s Day 🤣
Named for its sweet, citrusy fragrance (yes, it really does smell like orange blossoms!), mock orange brings elegance, scent, and texture to any arrangement or bouquet. These creamy white blooms offer that sought-after “just-picked” garden feel with their loose, romantic shape and delicate clusters.
Why do I love mock orange for design work?
• Architecture: it’s strong but graceful stems make it ideal for larger arrangements or foam-free mechanics
• Timeless Style: it works beautifully in both modern and vintage designs, adding movement and softness
• Seasonal Rarity: blooming only briefly in late spring, mock orange feels like a fleeting treasure
• Impeccable Sniffs: and of course, its amazing scent is to die for!
We’ll be cutting a limited amount for this week’s orders and bouquets- if you love seasonal scent and texture, this one’s for you!
