Product photos will be improving as our site grows, but at the moment to get as many items up as quickly as possible some photos may not be as good as we would like. Notwithstanding the above, the colours of the products are fairly close, and currently we think any photo is better than no photo at all. To show more clearly, the detail of the flower / decoration end of the product, the  stem end may be truncated from the photo. The total length of the item may be included in the description

All items are in stock except "Custom made from your fabric" or, if an item runs out of stock, a "backorder" and approx' lead time note will be entered into that item's brief description, as soon as possible.
