Spider Mum Stem | Khaki Green 71cm

Few stems have a silhouette as instantly recognisable as the spider mum. With its long, radiating petals and wild, almost otherworldly form, the spider chrysanthemum, also known as the fuji mum, needle mum, or spider chrysanth, brings a sculptural drama that very few other florals can match. This faux version in Khaki Green captures that same distinctive quality, with a muted, earthy tone that sits beautifully in modern boho, Scandinavian, and coastal interiors alike.

At 71cm tall, it works as a statement stem in a tall floor vase, a centrepiece in a wide ceramic vessel, or as part of a layered arrangement alongside other textural botanicals. The khaki green colouring is warm and organic, closer to dried grass or aged foliage than a bright green, which gives it a naturally faded, considered quality that reads as genuinely styled rather than obviously artificial.

It pairs naturally with other pieces from our faux botanicals collection, and sits especially well in our ceramic and glass vase edit for a complete, considered display. For a modern boho arrangement, layer it with dried-look grasses, pampas, and neutral stems at varying heights. For a more minimal look, a single stem in a tall, slender vase is more than enough.

No water, no wilting, no replacing. Just a beautiful, enduring stem that holds its shape and character season after season. our full stems collection for more pairing options.

FAQ

What is a spider mum? The spider mum, also known as the spider chrysanthemum, fuji mum, needle mum, or spider chrysanth, is a variety of chrysanthemum with long, slender petals that radiate outward from the centre in a distinctive spidery, feathery form. It is a popular choice in floristry and interior styling for its dramatic, sculptural silhouette.

Is this stem realistic looking? Yes. This faux spider mum stem is designed to closely replicate the look and character of a real spider chrysanthemum. The khaki green colouring has a naturally muted, organic quality that looks particularly convincing when styled with other complementary stems and botanicals.

Does it need water? No. This is a fully artificial stem and requires no water, soil, or maintenance of any kind.

How tall is it? The stem measures 71cm in height, making it ideal for tall vases, floor-standing arrangements, and larger table vessels.

Can the stem be bent or shaped? Most artificial stems have a wire core that allows gentle shaping and bending to achieve a more natural look. We recommend adjusting gently to avoid damage to the petals.

Is this available in store? Yes, the Spider Mum Stem Khaki Green is available at our Mount Maunganui store at 270 Maunganui Road, subject to availability. WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT

For a modern boho arrangement, cluster two or three Spider Mum Stems together in a wide ceramic or terracotta vessel, mixing in dried-look pampas, long grasses, and textural neutral stems at varying heights. The khaki green reads especially beautifully against raw clay, aged brass, and warm timber surfaces. For a more edited, minimal look, place a single stem in a tall slender vase and give it room to breathe. On a shelf or sideboard, pair it with a low ceramic object and a candle for a considered vignette. The muted tone works across a wide palette, sitting as naturally in a neutral Scandi interior as it does in a warmer, more layered boho space. GIFTING IDEAS
