This beautiful teardrop-shaped collection of flowers, in complimentary shades of blue, rests in a traditional softwood Trug basket.  Misty lilac statice falls gently, like lace, over its edges, and nestled within it are three lilac roses, two blue trachelium, two blue veronica and three blue larkspur.

Statice, sometimes known as Sea Foam or Seal Lavender, symbolizes remembrance, and is a common guest in mourning tributes and at memorial services.

Lavender coloured roses, with their whispering blue undertones, are unusual. They can symbolize the mysterious and the unobtainable, enchantment and other-worldliness. Their colour alone, traditionally represents spiritual rest and is said to aid tranquility. Similarly, larkspur, with its showy flowers and green, delicate foliage, is said to represent peace and tranquility.

Almost two centuries ago, a young gardener named Thomas Smith re-designed the original Anglo-Saxon, boat-like ‘Trog’ basket. Originally used to carry grains, and as measuring implements for liquid, Thomas’ design was more commonly used for ornamental purposes, or for the garden. So impressed was Queen Victoria with his design, that she awarded Thomas a bronze medal, and a diploma of merit! The design you see in this collection, we owe to him.

This gorgeous selection of blue-toned flowers in Lily Blossom’s Blue Remembrance Basket, formed into the shape of a teardrop, and presented in the traditional, softwood basket, is a gentle, thoughtful tribute or memorial gift.

Features: 3 Lilac Large Headed Roses, 1 Lilac Statice, 2 Blue Trachelium, 2 Blue Veronica, 3 Blue Larkspur, Foliage.
