Same-Day Delivery

Wild, painterly and unrepeatable - blue hydrangeas, plum calla lilies and sunny craspedia in one artistic gesture. Luxury flowers in Dubai with same-day delivery.

Botanic Reverie gathers blue hydrangeas, plum calla lilies, magenta blooms and sculptural seasonal botanicals into a single, untamed composition. Sunny craspedia punctuates the arrangement like points of light, while the calla lilies lend it line and architecture. This is flowers approached as art - wild, gestural and impossible to repeat exactly.

The calla lily carries one of the oldest stories in the floral world. Native to southern Africa, it was admired by the Greeks and Romans and later became a fixture of Art Deco design for its clean, sculptural silhouette. Its texture is unusual: a single smooth, furled spathe that feels almost waxen to the touch, holding its plum colour with quiet confidence. Calla lilies are largely unscented, which lets the rest of the arrangement breathe, and across centuries they have symbolised purity, rebirth and refined beauty - a calm anchor amid the wildness around them.

The hydrangea brings the opposite energy. Originally cultivated in Japan and later carried through Europe, its dense mophead of tiny florets reads as a single cloud of blue, soft and generous in volume. Hydrangeas have only the faintest green scent, and they have long been associated with heartfelt emotion, gratitude and abundance - the reason they so often appear in the most expressive bouquets.

Around these, magenta blooms and craspedia push the palette into something painterly. Lavender drifts into blue, then collides with yellow, coral and berry - a colour story that should not work yet feels entirely natural, the way a wild meadow does. The mood is artistic and a little untamed: spirited rather than formal, joyful rather than ceremonial. It suits the creative, the colour-confident and anyone who would rather be given something memorable than something expected. Explore more of our blue-toned designs if this palette speaks to you.

Each Botanic Reverie is hand-finished by our florists in the Amicis atelier in Dubai, built stem by stem so no two are identical. To keep it at its best, trim the stems on arrival, refresh the water every couple of days, and keep the arrangement out of direct sun.

Caring for your Botanic Reverie

Keep Botanic Reverie out of direct sun and away from cooling vents, since the Hydrangea and Dahlia are the first to flag when they run short on water. The Roses and Hydrangea are especially thirsty, so keep the vase generously topped up; the Hydrangea in particular drinks through its petals, and a light mist on a warm day helps it hold its shape. Trim the woody Hydrangea and Solidago stems on a sharp angle so they draw water freely, and handle the fleshy Calla Lily and Anthurium stems gently, as they bruise and snap more easily than the rest. Pull any spent Dahlia or Delphinium blooms as they go over, and the Anthurium and Chrysanthemum will carry the arrangement well past its first week.

A note on your specific blooms

  • Amaranthus — Recut the stems at an angle and keep the water shallow, as amaranthus drinks heavily and the lower stem softens quickly when submerged too deep.
  • Anthurium — Anthurium prefers warmth — keep it away from the cold and wipe the leaf gently.
  • Calla Lily — Re-cut the thick, fleshy stems on an angle and keep water shallow, as callas are prone to softening if stood too deep.
  • Chrysanthemum — Chrysanthemum is sensitive to murky water — strip the lower leaves and refresh it often.
  • Dahlia — Cut the hollow stems at an angle and refresh the water every day or two, as dahlias drink heavily and wilt quickly when thirsty.
  • Delphinium — Keep the tall stems in deep, fresh water and out of draughts, as Delphinium drinks heavily and wilts quickly if the vase runs low.
  • Gerbera — Gerbera has fragile stems — use shallow, clean water and support the heads.
  • Hydrangea — Hydrangea takes up water through its petals — mist the heads and keep the vase topped up.
  • Rose — Roses drink heavily — re-cut the stems at an angle every couple of days.
  • Solidago — Trim the stems on a slant and refresh the water often, as its dense plumes drink quickly and can cloud the vase.

How long your flowers last

Botanic Reverie is a mix of long-keeping and more fleeting stems, so expect roughly 5–7 days at its fullest before it begins to soften, with individual blooms outlasting that. The Dahlia and Hydrangea tend to fade first, both being thirsty and quick to wilt, while the Delphinium and Rose follow a similar 5–7 day arc. Holding longest are the Anthurium, which can stay composed for two to three weeks, alongside the Calla Lily and Chrysanthemum at one to two weeks, and the Amaranthus and Solidago at around 7–10 days. To get the most from this arrangement, the single most useful habit is a fresh, cool water change every two days with a quick re-trim of the stems, which the Amicis team will explain when your bouquet arrives.

The story behind these flowers

A closer look at the blooms gathered into this arrangement.

Amaranthus

Origin

Tropical Americas (Andes & Mesoamerica)

Cultivated since

For thousands of years by Andean & Mesoamerican peoples

Fragrance

Virtually scentless

Symbolises

Immortality, unfading love & endurance

Grown across the Americas for millennia as both grain and ornament, amaranthus is best known for its long crimson tassels that spill downward in soft, trailing ropes. Its name comes from the Greek for unfading, a nod to blooms that hold colour and form even as they dry. In an arrangement it adds movement and weight, draping over the edge of a vessel to break a clean silhouette and lend an Amicis piece an unhurried, sculptural fall.

Anthurium

Origin

Rainforests of Colombia & Ecuador

Documented

By botanists in the 1870s

Fragrance

Virtually scentless

Symbolises

Hospitality, confidence & beauty

The anthurium's glossy, sculptural 'bloom' is in fact a modified leaf, with a poised tropical architecture few flowers can match. It lends Amicis designs a clean, modern edge — and one of the longest vase lives in the bouquet.

Calla Lily

Origin

Southern Africa

Cultivated since

Reached Europe in the 1600s

Fragrance

Virtually scentless

Symbolises

Grace, purity & devotion

Native to southern Africa, the calla's signature is not a petal at all but a single furled spathe wrapped around a slender golden spadix. That clean, sculptural curve is why it reads as architecture rather than bloom – one stem lends an Amicis arrangement quiet, modern poise.

Chrysanthemum

Origin

East Asia — China & Japan

Cultivated since

Over 3,000 years in China

Fragrance

Soft, earthy and herbal

Symbolises

Longevity, joy & well-wishing

One of the oldest cultivated flowers, prized in China and Japan for three thousand years and honoured with its own festival. Its dense, textured heads bring depth and a long, dependable life to an arrangement.

Dahlia

Origin

Mexico and Central America

Cultivated since

Aztec gardens; reached Europe in the late 18th century

Fragrance

Virtually scentless

Symbolises

Elegance, dignity & devotion

Declared the national flower of Mexico, the dahlia was grown in Aztec gardens long before it was first raised in Europe in the late 18th century, spreading widely in the decades that followed. In its ball and pompon forms, the densely layered florets curl into a near-spherical head — geometry that gives an Amicis arrangement a sculptural, architectural centre that holds the eye.

Delphinium

Origin

Native across the Northern Hemisphere, through Europe and Asia

Cultivated since

In European gardens for centuries

Fragrance

Virtually scentless

Symbolises

Openness, lightness & positivity

Named from the Greek for dolphin, after the shape of the flower itself, Delphinium carries blooms in graduated spires of cobalt, violet and white. That vertical line is what makes it indispensable in an arrangement - it draws the eye upward and gives an Amicis design its sense of height and architecture.

Gerbera

Origin

South Africa

Described

By science in 1889

Fragrance

Barely scented, lightly fresh

Symbolises

Cheerfulness, warmth & innocence

The gerbera daisy brings open, sunlit colour and a graphic simplicity to a bouquet. Native to South Africa and loved worldwide, its clean single bloom adds brightness and a friendly, contemporary note to Amicis designs.

Hydrangea

Origin

Japan & the Americas

Cultivated since

Reached European gardens in the 1700s

Fragrance

Very light, fresh and green

Symbolises

Heartfelt emotion & gratitude

Named from the Greek for 'water vessel', the hydrangea carries full, cloud-like heads that shift colour with the soil — from blush and cream to deep blue. Its generous volume gives Amicis bouquets their soft, romantic fullness.

Rose

Origin

Asia — China, Persia & the Mediterranean

Cultivated since

Over 5,000 years

Fragrance

Warm and sweet, of honey & tea

Symbolises

Love, gratitude & admiration

The most storied flower in the world, grown and gifted for five millennia. Its layered petals and soft scent have made it the universal language of affection — and the quiet anchor of almost every Amicis arrangement.

Solidago

Origin

North America

Cultivated since

Reached European gardens in the 1600s

Fragrance

Soft and lightly grassy

Symbolises

Warmth, texture & encouragement

Native to North America, Solidago carries clouds of tiny golden florets on feathery plumes. In an arrangement it is the quiet connective tissue - softening the gaps between focal blooms and lending a sunlit, airy movement that keeps a composition from feeling crowded.
