- Pros/Cons
- Flower Care
- Quantity Help
- Substitutes
The Good: We LOVE Brunia’s texture and unique color cannot be matched! As with all textural elements, we find a little goes a LONG way.
The Bad: There aren’t many negatives due to the sheer hardiness of this woody nature. The foliage is not particularly attractive, so we typically remove this and only use the balls.
- Give the stems a fresh cut, and place in cool water.
- Remove leaves below the waterline.
Brunia is considered a ‘Texture Flower’. Based on our design ratio suggestions here’s our quantity recommendations:
- Bridal Bouquet: 1/3 bunch

Flower Moxie reserves the right to make changes or substitutions. All substitutions are only done as a last resort, and only when the reasons for doing so are reasonable and genuine. For example, if a flower becomes unavailable (off-crop), incorrect color, or not in good condition to grace a wedding function we will substitute a flower that has a similar color and price-point.
Acceptable Subs: Snowberry, hypericum berries, or another textured element that works within your specific palette.
