Paper flower - Eustoma / Lisianthus stencil


</script>

For flowers stencil -

Combining the Greek words for “beautiful” and “mouth” Eustoma flowers are one of the most ethereally lovely flowers cultivated by home gardeners and botany enthusiasts today.  Known also as the Lisianthus, the Love Rose, and the Texas Bluebell, the Eustoma is definitely proof of the old (and paraphrased) adage, “A rose by any other name looks as sweet.”
Growing mainly in the grasslands of the North American prairie, the Eustoma flower is available for cultivation year round, although the greatest production peaks in the summer months, from June to August. 
The Eustoma flower is extremely popular as a cultivated cut flower, both because of the beautiful selection of colors and because the flowers easily remain attractive for at least a week after cutting.  The most common uses are as a corsage, or gathered together with multiple colors in the same vase.  Because of the large size of the flower head when compared to the relatively slender stalk, it is an important consideration to carefully place the flowers in such a manner that they will stay upright in the vase.

Crocus (English plural: crocuses or croci) is a genus of flowering plants in the iris family comprising 90 species of perennials growing from corms. Many are cultivated for their flowers appearing in autumn, winter, or spring. Crocuses are native to woodland, scrub, and meadows from sea level to alpine tundra in central and southern EuropeNorth Africa and the Middle East, on the islands of the Aegean, and across Central Asia to Xinjiang Province in western China.
Often poking up through the last drifts of snow, crocuses are one of the opening acts of the spring-bulb show. Their large cup-shape blooms suddenly appearing in tufts of grasslike foliage seem magical.
