Pampas

Pampas grass is the star of dried flowers. Its large airy plumes bring volume and softness in natural or colored shades.

Pampas alone in a large floor vase makes a statement. In a mixed bouquet with eucalyptus and dried wheat for variety.

Mistake: pampas that sheds its seeds everywhere. Fix it with hairspray to keep the plume intact.

There are two main varieties of pampas: white pampas and colored pampas. White pampas is the most classic with its airy pure white plumes. Colored pampas comes in various shades ranging from powdery pink to dark purple.

To preserve the natural look of pampas, avoid spraying it with a fixative. Prefer to store it away from light and humidity. You can also gently secure it with thin wires to restore its original shape if needed.

Pampas brings volume, lightness and a natural, airy touch to your decor. Its voluminous plumes can elegantly adorn a vase, a hanging decoration or even a wall wreath. Moreover, pampas preserves very well over time, making it a particularly practical dried flower.

You can find pampas in many stores specialized in dried flowers, as well as in some garden centers or supermarkets. For better quality, prefer florists or websites dedicated to selling pampas and other dried flowers.

Pampas pairs very well with other natural materials such as rattan, wood or linen. For example, you can place it in a wicker basket, attach it to a wooden frame or integrate it into a foliage garland. Be careful, however, not to overdo your decoration to maintain its airy and delicate appearance.
