Pressed dried flowers of Fuchsia in natural pale pink, UK grown. Pack of 7 British pressed flowers. This type of Fuchsia is known as Maiden's Blush with the botanical name Fuchsia magellanica var. molinae 'Alba'. This hardy Fuchsia is a cottage garden favourite and although the word "Alba" implies white flowers, they are pale pink with a lavender centre. The pendulous flowers often have elongated stamens.
These flowers are 100% natural and are often variable in shade, shape and size. There is often a beige tinge to the petal tips which is normal for pale flowers on drying. Each bloom is about 2 to 3cm across at the widest point and 4 to 7cm long including stem and stamens. Not for food use.
