Blue Sapphire

Blue Delphiniums and White Roses in a Glass Jar Vase

Blue Sapphire is a jar vase arrangement of tall blue delphiniums, white roses, snapdragons and St Joseph lilies, arranged by hand in our Claremont studio and delivered the same day across Cape Town. It arrives in its own clear glass jar tied with natural twine, so there is nothing to unwrap and no vase to hunt for. Set it on a kitchen table and the whole room settles a little. Blue is the colour people rarely think to send, which is exactly why it gets noticed.

What's in Blue Sapphire

• Blue delphiniums: tall spikes of cornflower-to-violet florets that give the arrangement its colour and height
• White roses: creamy heads that soften the blue and hold the centre
• Snapdragons: white and pale green spires that add texture
• St Joseph lilies: long buds that open over the next few days into large, fragrant white flowers
• Fresh greenery: leaves that frame the blooms
• Presentation: arranged in a clear glass jar vase finished with jute twine
• Delivery: same day in Cape Town when you order before 12pm, with a free handwritten card

Who to Send It To

Blue and white is a calm, steady pairing for saying something kind without making a fuss. It is a lovely way to welcome a new baby boy, and it fits a gender reveal table where the blue is the whole point. See more ideas in our new baby flowers and gender reveal gifts. It also suits a dinner table, a thank you, or the dad who would never ask for flowers but quietly loves them.

How to Care for Your Arrangement

Top up the jar with fresh water every day. Every two days, lift the stems out, trim them at an angle and change the water completely. Keep it out of direct sun and away from fruit bowls. As each lily opens, pinch off the orange pollen tips with a tissue so they do not stain the petals or your tablecloth. A few delphinium florets may drop as the days go on, which is normal. Our flower care guide has more tips.

Frequently Asked Questions

What flowers are in Blue Sapphire?

Blue delphiniums, white roses, white and green snapdragons, St Joseph lilies and fresh greenery, arranged in a clear glass jar vase by florists who have been working in Cape Town since 1999.

Is the jar vase included?

Yes. It is delivered already arranged in its glass jar, ready to display the moment it arrives.

Can you deliver it today?

Yes, in Cape Town. Order before 12pm for same-day delivery anywhere from Sea Point and Camps Bay to Constantia and Kenilworth, or collect it from our Claremont studio. This arrangement is not available in Johannesburg or for nationwide delivery.

Why do the lilies arrive closed?

St Joseph lilies are at their best when they arrive in bud. They open over the next few days and fill the room with scent, so the arrangement looks good for longer.

What do blue delphiniums symbolise?

Delphiniums are linked with an open heart and goodwill, and blue delphiniums in particular with dignity and grace. Read more in our guide to flower meanings.

Are lilies safe for cats?

No. Every part of a lily is toxic to cats, including the pollen and the vase water. If you have a cat at home, keep the arrangement well out of reach or choose a lily-free bouquet instead.

Is there a freshness guarantee?

Yes. It comes with our 5-day freshness guarantee, or we re-send it.
