Curcuma (Siam Tulip) – The Sculptural Jewel of Tropical Origin
At KvětinyExpres.cz, Curcuma is a botanical revelation. While widely known as a golden spice, in high-end floristry, it is prized for its stunning, wax-like inflorescence. Often called the "Siam Tulip," this relative of ginger brings a bold, architectural structure and a sophisticated tropical vibe to our 2026 collections.
Why it’s a design icon:
-
Sculptural Form: Its bloom is composed of sturdy, colored bracts that create a visual focal point unlike any traditional flower.
-
Longevity: Thanks to its robust, waxy texture, it has an exceptional vase life, maintaining its regal appearance for weeks.
-
Meaning: It symbolizes purity, inner strength, and uniqueness.
Florist Monika’s Tip (Quality Expert): "Curcuma is our 'ace in the hole' for luxury Christmas flowers and bouquets. It provides a stunning, unexpected contrast to dark winter greenery and traditional pine. In our mixed bouquets, it acts as a centerpiece that defines the entire arrangement. Pro tip: Since it is a tropical plant, avoid placing it near cold windows—it loves a stable, warm room temperature to stay perfect."
