"Dried florals are a low-maintenance way of keeping florals in your home without having to replace them every week. Although they can come with a hefty upfront cost, they're surprisingly a lot more budget-friendly in the end. "I think dried flowers became popular as an alternative to fresh flowers because of the sheer expense of having to replace them," says Alex Bass, the founder and CEO of Art Advisory & Interior Design Studio Salon 21."
""People are realizing that dried flowers are really just dust collectors," Bass says, especially because they're impossible to clean without leaves and petals flaking off. While some dried flowers don't shed as much, many popular wildflower varieties have tiny, delicate petals that fall everywhere if you so much as breathe in their direction. As a Reiki Master, I also always consider the energy of an object before bringing it into my home as a piece of decor."
Dried florals offer a low-maintenance, long-term budget-friendly alternative to fresh blooms despite sometimes high upfront costs. Many dried varieties shed delicate petals and trap dust, making them difficult to clean and maintain. Dried botanicals are often perceived as lacking vitality and the emotional or energetic lift that fresh flowers provide. Designers are noticing shifts away from traditional dried arrangements toward new variations and alternatives that address shedding and lifelessness. For those who avoid fresh blooms, several alternative decorative options and fresh-inspired picks remain available.
