The Jacaranda piece shown is a single opened pod whose walls twist and fold upwards like a small flame or a ruffled tulip. Its outer faces are a dusty rust brown with a slightly powdery texture, while the inner surfaces are a lighter sand tone, so every curve shows a contrast of colour along its edge.
Jacaranda is the trade name used in our catalogue, and we describe the product by what it is: a dried, open botanical shell with strong movement. Because of that shape it works best as a focal element — tucked into the centre of a dried arrangement, set on a small stand, or grouped in threes on a mantel — rather than as a background filler.
Floral Mongers supplies this pod naturally dried and hand-sorted so that broken or collapsed pieces are removed. Designers building exotic, desert-inspired or earthy collections use it to add height and curl, and it pairs well with lotus pods, bell cups and palm leaves. Bulk and export supply is available.

Natural variation
The twist, height and number of folds differ from pod to pod, and colour ranges between lighter sand and deeper rust. Small marks or thinner edges are natural features of this dried shell. These are natural characteristics of handmade and botanical products, not defects; shade, size and grade are confirmed on sample approval.
Care & storage
- Handle by the base; thin ruffled edges can crack
- Store in a dry place without stacking weight on top
- Keep away from prolonged direct sunlight
- Dust with a soft brush or low cool air
