Trachelium (Throatwort) – The Rare Blue Cloud. Trachelium, or Throatwort, is a summer flower loved by florists for its rich, umbrella-shaped inflorescences. These are composed of dozens of tiny florets and create a wonderful, "cloud-like" texture. Its greatest asset, however, is its colour – it brings rare and sought-after blue and blue-violet shades to bouquets.
Florist's Expert View: Texture and Durability For florists, Trachelium is a fantastic "filler" flower that can fill space, add volume, and provide a unique texture. It is a symbol of calm and depth. Its huge advantage is its extreme durability; it often stays fresh in a vase for more than 2 weeks.
Tip from florist Bára (Design Expert) "Trachelium is wonderful for adding texture. It looks like a soft, coloured cloud. Its blue-violet colour is quite rare in floristry and combines beautifully with white or pink flowers, giving them depth and contrast. It's perfect for luxury and wedding bouquets."
Use in Floristry Thanks to its texture and durability, Trachelium is ideal for:
-
Mixed bouquets (adds volume and a rare colour)
-
Wedding bouquets (especially for "something blue")
-
Luxury bouquets (as a sophisticated filler)
-
Summer arrangements
