Red Velvet Hydrangea Stem

Real hydrangeas give you a week in the vase; this red velvet stem carries a holiday arrangement from the first party of December straight through Valentine's Day. The full bloom is made of soft velvet petals edged in fine red glitter, with sequin-bright centers that catch candlelight across a dinner table.

Gather three in a silver pitcher for the entry, work one into a wreath, or tie one to a wrapped present for the colleague who always wears red. Bundled with ribbon, a few RAZ Imports stems make a hostess gift that never needs water. The deep, true red holds its own beside evergreen and gold.
