Tiny and rounded, Putka Pod looks like a miniature pumpkin. Each pod is gently flattened and divided by shallow ribs that meet at a small dimple or star-shaped point on top. The colour is a soft terracotta to rosy clay brown, with lighter and darker pods mixed through the batch for a warm, earthy spread.
Because they are compact and firm, these pods pour like beads and work well as the base layer of a potpourri bowl, filling gaps between larger slices and petals. They are equally useful in glass vases and jars as a textured filler, in autumn and harvest décor, and in craft projects where many small, uniform-looking pieces are needed. Their shape is naturally stable, so they sit well on flat surfaces and glued work.
Floral Mongers supplies Putka Pod naturally dried and unscented, sold by weight in sealed bags. The pods can carry fragrance oils for scented blends. As a dried botanical supplier and dry flower exporter from India, we pack them in moisture-protected cartons for wholesale and export buyers.
