Stormy weather, warm colours and coziness indoors, the fall season invites you to stay inside. Houses, offices and shops are decorated with cheerful flowers combined with autumn greenery. This is, therefore, the right time to get these seasonal products in store.

 

Most of the autumn products we offer come from Italy and France. Time to ask our suppliers over there for more information about the products.

Of course, we will also share a number of photos behind the scenes with you in this blog.

 

COLOUR

The autumn season is known for colour. The green leaves on the trees change to warm orange and red tones. And not only outside on the trees do we see these colours. In our webshop as well.
During this season, we offer different coloured products, especially in warm autumn colours.
The colours of the products can be made in different ways. We would like to tell you more about this.

 

  • Preserve/stabilize; Preservation of a product means that the product is treated with a mix of water, glycine and colour. The product keeps its soft, natural look, but in a beautiful autumn colour. A big advantage of preservation is that the products have a long shelf life. 

 

  • Absorb; The product is put into a paint mixture. The colour is absorbed into the leaf through the stem. We see this process in the flower business as well.

 

  • Dye; with painted products, the paint is on the outside of the product. Painting ensures that the colour can give a thick, covering layer to the product. If you are looking for a bright colour, this is a perfect solution.

 

Preservation of products is done at our suppliers in Italy. The product grows in the wild on trees and shrubs. This is cut, bundled and taken to a local paint merchant. They ensure that the branches get their beautiful colour.

PRODUCTS WITH BERRIES

In addition, we are now offering more and more products with berries.
Large, small, coloured or green berries appear between the leaves.

A well-known example of a product that gets berries during this period is Populus.
Populus can be recognized by its round grayish leaf. When berries appear between the leaves we call it: Populus Berry.

 

Other nice examples of greenery with berries are Hedera, Viburnum and Rombifolia. But also take a look at our webshop for more products.

 

The different foliage varieties with Berry grow on shrubs and trees. When the berries appear, the branches are removed from the trees.

ORNAMENTAL FRUIT

In addition to the different types of cut foliage, we also offer ornamental fruit this time.
You can think of date branches.
The branches full of green berries are perfect for decoration.
When you let the branches dry in, the berries get a beautiful dark purple colour.
The branches grow on tall trees in Italy, France and Spain.
