The use of colors in floral designs, arrangements, and bouquets during the festive season is characterized by warm tones.
This makes it the perfect time to highlight a remarkable flower that fits seamlessly with the desire to work with warm color palettes: the Jatropha ‘Firecracker.’
This “quirky” cut flower resembles coral and is known for its unique appearance and striking deep red color, which brings a warm glow to any interior space, whether in a living room, kitchen, or as part of floral decor for an event.
This eye-catching flower may look like it was plucked straight from the ocean, but in reality, it originates from the foothills of Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania.
The Jatropha ‘Firecracker’ features a compact, spherical structure with numerous small petals arranged closely together. As a species, the Jatropha symbolizes love, passion, and vitality thanks to its vibrant red hue.
What’s special about this flower is that it’s available year-round, albeit in smaller quantities. This makes it especially worthwhile to check availability with your supplier during these weeks. Marginpar, based in Aalsmeer, has been a trusted supplier of over 100 different summer flowers for more than 35 years and offers the Jatropha ‘Firecracker’ year-round.
