The detail that sets SO97 apart sits on the rim of every petal: a fine line of deeper violet traces each rounded edge, while the body of the petal stays a pale, milky lavender. Because the flower is built from many tightly packed layers, those tinted edges repeat in rings from the outside to the swirled centre, so the head reads as a shaded, camellia- or ranunculus-like bloom rather than a flat block of colour.
The product image shows a single flower on a slim dark stem rising from a small vase, its face turned slightly outward – proof that SO97 holds its own as a one-stem display. Wire or stick stems are used as shown; stem length and type are available on request.
Lilac and lavender palettes sell steadily for spring retail, Mother’s Day gifting and soft-toned wedding tables, and SO97 suits all three. It pairs naturally with dried lavender, silver-grey foliage and white sola, and works as a reed diffuser topper because sola pith absorbs fragrance oils. In hand-tied bouquets, a few stems add depth to paler mixes.
These handmade sola flowers are dyed and assembled in India and supplied by Floral Mongers by the stem or in bunches for florists, décor brands and online sellers.

Natural variation
Being handmade, the number of petal layers and the fullness of each head differ slightly from stem to stem, and the violet edge line can be finer or heavier depending on how each petal took the dye. The natural tone of the sola pith also varies, which can make the lavender look slightly cooler or warmer across a batch. These are natural characteristics of handmade and botanical products, not defects; shade, size and grade are confirmed on sample approval.
Care & storage
- Keep dry; do not place in water or damp spots
- Keep out of direct sunlight, as lavender dyes soften over time
- Hold by the stem to avoid crushing the layered petals
- Test fragrance oils on one stem first, as oil can deepen dyed colours
- Dust with a soft brush or a cool air setting
- Unpack promptly on arrival and let the pieces air in a dry room; avoid storing in sealed, humid packaging
