Description

Lot of Five Real Dried 3" - 4" Wide Artichoke Flowers on Natural Stems - Lot 2
From an edible vegetable to a blooming flower, these attractive, decorative spiky artichokes are sturdy and have long-lasting color.  Their striking purple centers are surrounded by light tan / ivory inner petals with outer petals of greenish tan tinged with red.  Each spiky bloom is attached to a sturdy stem, ready to be placed in a vase or used in a bouquet as a standout element.  With the stem removed, they can also add a striking statement in your wreath, swag or bowl arrangement.
This lot includes five dried artichoke flowers on their natural stems and the pictures show the flowers you will receive.  They were homegrown in southern California without pesticides, handpicked, rinsed in soapy water to dispel any pests, then rinsed well in plain water and hung to naturally air-dry upside down out of direct sunlight.  Each bloom is unique in size and shade of purple and several types of artichokes are grown, so the petals on some may be spikier and others more rounded.  These flowers measure about 3 inches to 4 inches wide at their widest point and closer to 3 inches in height.  Including their stems, they measure about 11 to 13 inches long.  These natural flowers come from a smoke-free environment but may still have a slight "artichoke" odor.  They will be padded and shipped in a box via USPS First Class Package.
If you are interested in purchasing more than one lot, please message me before buying and I'll try to combine the lots to save shipping cost.
Note: These items are described and photographed as accurately as possible, but please message me with any questions you may have.  They are sold as-is with no return and I don’t profit on the shipping; the calculated shipping costs you see include all eBay discounts.  I charge a handling charge per listing to help cover the cost of boxes, envelopes and packing materials.  I ship same or next day, if possible, but list as shipping within 2 days due to sporadic required overnight travel.
Sales tax will be added to your purchase as laws require.
Thank you for your interest!
