A set of green carnations and green hydrangeas — an idea I borrowed from Patrick Blanc, the French botanist who covered two hundred metres of the Musée du Quai Branly façade in living plants, in the heart of stone Paris.

Description
This green flower home set brings together two shades of dense green — ruffled green carnation and mossy round green hydrangea, on long stems. No vase comes with the order, no shape is set for you: this is a bundle to work with, not a finished bouquet — the stems arrive raw, waiting for you to trim them and choose their form yourself, at your own pace.
Living in Paris means living in stone. Eventually you begin to miss, almost physically, forest, living air, greenery that simply breathes beside you. In 2004, the French botanist Patrick Blanc gave his answer to that hunger — he invented the living wall. He took fifteen thousand plants of a hundred and fifty species from Japan, China, the United States and Central Europe, lifted them vertically onto the façade of the new Musée du Quai Branly designed by Jean Nouvel — twenty-two metres tall, forty-seven long, about 800 m² of planted surface — and grew them without a single grain of soil, on pure hydroponics. The wall is still alive: it was restored a few years ago, and the new version now holds twenty-two thousand plants across three hundred and seventy-six species. In June 2023, Paris adopted a new Local Bioclimatic Urban Plan that requires vegetation on the façades of new buildings — Blanc's private idea became city law in less than twenty years. I was inspired by the same idea. This set is a small fragment of that wall, brought into your own room.
A small bonus: like the walls that inspire it, this set is stubbornly long-lasting. You will run out of patience for changing the water before it runs out of standing.
If one of the two flowers doesn't meet my standard on the day of the order, I substitute it with another — the green palette and the character of the set remain intact.
A pair of floral shears and two vase models (Vase Pure Form, Vase Elegant Silhouette) are offered separately if you want everything in one delivery. Made to order, delivered in Paris at the time you book, Monday to Saturday.
