Lali Petal stands out for its colour. The pieces are dried pod shells in deep maroon, wine and reddish-brown, darker than most potpourri components, with occasional flashes of cream where the inner lining shows at the edge. Many shells roll inward into hooded cups or cone-like wraps, while others open into curved, petal-like scoops ending in a small hooked tip.
That rich, red-leaning palette makes Lali Petal useful for adding warmth to autumn, festive and winter blends without dye. The rolled shapes hold small components such as berries or seeds inside them, and when massed in a bowl they create a layered, shell-like texture. Florists and wreath makers pick out the larger curled pieces as focal accents.
Floral Mongers supplies Lali Petal naturally dried and unscented, sold by weight. The inner surfaces accept fragrance oils if a buyer wants a scented version. We pack them for wholesale and export in moisture-protected cartons, serving potpourri makers and importers who need a dependable dried botanical supplier.

Natural variation
Shells differ in how tightly they curl, in size and in shade, from wine-red to brown; some show more of the pale inner lining than others. These are natural characteristics of handmade and botanical products, not defects; shade, size and grade are confirmed on sample approval.
Care & storage
- Keep dry to preserve shape and colour
- Store away from direct sunlight to slow fading of the red tone
- Handle curled edges gently
- Dust with a soft, dry brush
