Paper flower - Eustoma / Lisianthus stencil
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.
