Holly Jolly Blossom Flower Arrangement

Holly Jolly Blossom: A Small Christmas Flower Arrangement in a Glass Vase

The Holly Jolly Blossom is a small Christmas flower arrangement of red gerberas, glossy red ilex berries, white scabiosa and spiky sea holly, finished with gold-sprayed fern and gold leaves in a clear glass cylinder vase. It is loose, wild and a little bit sparkly, the kind of festive flowers that make a kitchen counter or a side table feel like Christmas the moment it arrives. Our florists have been making flowers by hand in our Claremont studio since 1999, and more than 5,800 customers have reviewed us across Loox, Google and Trustpilot. Order before 12pm for same-day delivery across Cape Town. See all our Christmas wreaths and flowers.

Red berries, a splash of gold and two big red gerberas in a little glass vase: Christmas, in a size that fits anywhere.

What's in the Holly Jolly Blossom

• Red gerberas: big, bright daisy faces that bring the Christmas red
• Red ilex berries: glossy clusters of the classic festive berry
• White scabiosa and sea holly: soft white flowers and spiky green thistles for a wild, wintry touch
• Gold-sprayed fern and leaves: just enough sparkle to feel festive without tinsel
• Small clear glass vase: arranged in water and ready to display the moment it arrives, plus a free handwritten card

A Little Christmas Gift for Your Mom, Sister or Best Friend

Not every Christmas gift needs a big box and a bow. This is the one you send to say "I'm thinking of you this Christmas" to your mom, your sister or the friend who always makes the season feel special. It arrives ready in its own vase, so there is nothing to unwrap, trim or arrange: she simply puts it down and Christmas is on the table. Add your message at checkout and we write it by hand on the card.

A Small Centrepiece for Your Christmas Table

Invited to Christmas lunch? Arriving with flowers in their own vase is the kindest thing you can do for a busy host, because nobody has to stop and look for a vase. It is low and small enough to sit in the middle of the table without blocking anyone across from you, and the red, white and gold suit a festive table perfectly. Order a few and line them down a long table for a simple, pretty centrepiece.

A Festive Thank You for Neighbours and Friends

For the neighbours who water your plants, the friend who always shows up, or the people who made your year easier, a small vase of Christmas flowers says thank you without fuss. It is a sweet, affordable way to spread some festive cheer around the street. For a gift that travels further, browse our Christmas gift boxes.

Same-Day Christmas Flower Delivery in Cape Town

Order before 12pm and our own drivers deliver the Holly Jolly Blossom the same day across Cape Town, from Sea Point and Constantia to Rondebosch and Durbanville, or choose a delivery date at checkout so it arrives exactly when you want it to. This arrangement is delivered in Cape Town only. Every arrangement is made by hand on the day it goes out, so it arrives fresh, never stored, and if a flower is out of season our florists use a similar bloom of the same colour and quality.

How to Care for Your Christmas Vase

The flowers stand in water in the vase, so top it up with fresh, cool water every day and change it completely every two or three days. Keep the vase out of direct sun and away from heaters and ripening fruit. If a gerbera head starts to droop, take it out, recut the stem at an angle and put it back in fresh water, and it usually lifts again within a few hours. The berries, sea holly and gold fern will keep looking festive long after the gerberas are at their best.

Similar Christmas Flowers

For a festive posy in a kraft box, the Christmas Carol Posy and the Sweet Christmas Delight Posy are both easy gifts to hand over. If you would like flowers with a little bubbly, the Christmas Citrus Cheer Jar pairs yellow flowers in a glass jar with a half bottle and toffees.
