Liatris (Blazing Star) – The Vertical Rebel of Modern Floristry
At KvětinyExpres.cz, Liatris is the "architect" of our tall arrangements. Known for its feathery, spike-like appearance, it brings a dramatic vertical line that defines 2026 floral trends. Unlike most spiked flowers that bloom from the bottom up, Liatris blooms from the top down, ensuring the bouquet’s silhouette remains striking from the very first moment.
Why it stands out:
-
The "Gayfeather" Effect: Its texture is incredibly soft yet visually strong, earning it the nickname "Gayfeather" or "Blazing Star."
-
Symbolism: It represents joy, happiness, and an enduring spirit.
-
Sustainability: It is an exceptionally hardy flower with a long vase life, making it a reliable choice for long events or office decor.
Florist Bára’s Tip (Design Expert): "Liatris is essential for adding height and a sense of 'order' to a design. I love incorporating it into luxury bouquets to create a high-impact profile. It’s also a frequent choice for modern wedding bouquets where we want to achieve a sophisticated, non-traditional look. Pro secret: As it blooms from the top, the stems stay vibrant for a surprisingly long time. If you’re looking for a flower that 'stands at attention,' Liatris is your best bet."
