The most versatile, the most wonderful, the Galax Leaf.
Bouquets of flowers are so much prettier when the rim of the vase is cushioned by a few leaves. The Galax leaf does it most beautifully.
It only takes 2 Galax Leaves and a single flower to fashion a perfect Boutonniere.
Galax leaves come in bunches of 25 to 30 leaves. They last in the refrigerator, without water, for months and are ready to use when you are.
They make the perfect Tussie Mussie, a lovely gift.
Galax Leaves grow in Forests of the Eastern United States
Galax grow mainly in the Appalachian Mountains. There have been concerns over the excessive harvesting of galax leaves. Commercial production, galax propagation and container culture is being explored.
Galax are an evergreen, herbaceous perennial plant of the genus Diapensiaceae. Your florist will order them for you...they are very handy to have around.
Have a wonderful and successful week my dear
