How to recognise it

Small star-shaped five-petalled flowers clustered along wiry stems
Fine needle-like aromatic leaves along the stem
Flowers open from small rounded buds
Woody, wiry stem typical of waxflower
Light, slightly resinous scent when leaves are crushed

Care

Strip any foliage that would sit below the waterline and recut stems at an angle before placing in clean water. Waxflower is sensitive to ethylene, so keep away from ripening fruit and old flowers. Use a flower food solution to prolong life and keep stems well hydrated, as it can dry out and drop flowers if left out of water.
