Flower Crush SPECIAL EDITION: Sweet Escimo Roses

Flower Crush SPECIAL EDITION: Sweet Escimo Roses

Sweet Escimo roses

Soft, pastel, pink dream – spelled not with a K but with a C!

We thought we’d do something special this month and crush on a specific variety of a flower! And so we present luscious Sweet Escimo roses for your visual (and olfactory) pleasure. Nicknamed (just now, at this moment, by me!) “Sweet E”, Sweet Escimo is very sweet indeed. Often richly scented, the Ecuadorian-grown variety languishes in the perfect shade of blush pink.

Blush pink, that pale, barely there hint of color that is the equivalent of a flushed cheek, is one of the most highly sought-after shade in the industry these days. Alas, it is also one of the most elusive and is often a result of happenstance. For example, you might see a bunch of white peonies or anemone with the slightest touch of pink. Though the blush on these otherwise white blooms creates a stunning effect that’s difficult to overlook when perusing Pinterest or magazines and considering your color scheme, the blush on many of these flowers, sadly, is purely coincidental. In fact, many varieties of flowers marketed as “blush pink” can actually end up being rather “hot”. That’s what makes this rose so special. The perfect shade of blush aside, the rose’s feather-weight head, ethereal opening pattern, low thorn count, and supple, never-woody stem make Sweet Escimo roses a favorite to work with and one of our leading light pink ladies in bouquets and arrangements alike!

Sweet Escimo Facts:

Season: Year-round

Colors: A perfectly blush light pink that tends to lighten a bit as the rose opens.

When to Use: For a perfectly sweet, reliable light pink. Great in bouquets, boutonnieres, ceremony flowers, and table designs

Sun-drenched florals, bold texture, and one unforgettable chuppah moment.

For Aliza & Alex’s summer celebration at Oxon Hill Manor, we went full color-forward. Coral peonies were the undeniable star. Paired with wildflower-inspired details like daisies, snapdragons, freesia, and even herbs, the floral design struck that perfect balance between luxe and lighthearted.

From the birch pole chuppah trailing with blooms to vibrant, garden-style centerpieces, this tented affair radiated joyful energy - proof that color can absolutely be elevated!
