Length

Phylica lasiocarpa, commonly known as Cotton Bush, is locally grown in South Africa and widely used in the global cut flower trade. Its naturally soft, woolly heads are post-harvest colour-treated with floral-safe dyes to deliver a vibrant palette ranging from rich purples and blues to yellows, reds, and whites. Ideal for straight-line bunches, large-scale bouquets, seasonal promotions, and mass-market floral programmes, the tinted version enhances the decorative versatility of the Cotton Bush while retaining its natural texture and form.
