Preserved Smoke Bush 

Origin & meaning

 Smoke bush gets its name from the airy, smoke-like plumes that rise from its blooms after flowering. Preserved smoke bush retains this hazy, ethereal quality long after cutting, making it a favorite in dried arrangements. Its wispy form has long evoked mystery and transformation, a plant that seems to blur the line between solid and ephemeral.
