Oriental lilies and Dendrobium orchids share one compact cube, just 4.75 inches across, filled out with a little seasonal greenery. Everything leans cool and moody: soft purple lilies against deeper violet orchid stems, without any red or yellow in the mix. It's a color story with a little Parisian polish.
Purples in Paris works to mark a promotion, a small win, or the kind of Tuesday that just needs marking. Set the cube on a desk or an entry table and it holds its shape without sprawling, so it suits a shelf or a table just as well. Up close the orchids carry a light, faintly powdery scent, while the lilies do the heavier lifting once they open.
Our designers gather the lilies and orchids fresh the morning of delivery, then hand-build each one in our own studio, a habit that goes back to 1903. Order by 2:00 PM in your recipient's time zone (noon on Sundays) and most areas get same-day flower delivery; farther out, our nationwide network of local florists takes over. Purples in Paris remains one of our favorite compact arrangements to send.
Purples in Paris started as an experiment: how much color we could get from just two flowers instead of ten. The purple came from careful sourcing, the height from pairing lilies with taller orchids.
Purples in Paris keeps things simple: two flowers, one color story, and a cube crafted to travel well.
What's in the Purples in Paris Cube: One cube holds oriental lilies and Dendrobium orchids together, finished with a little seasonal foliage. We cut these fresh flowers the morning of delivery, so what arrives matches what's pictured, allowing for the usual seasonal shift in a stem or two, the kind of call any florist makes before it goes out the door.
A Purple and Violet Color Story: This one skips the usual crowd-pleasing reds and yellows for something quieter: pale purple lilies, deep violet orchids, and green foliage to ground it. Flowers shift a little with the season, so expect the same mood and color family even if the exact stems vary slightly.
One Size for This Mixed Flower Arrangement: Purples in Paris comes in a single size, scaled for a desk, an entry table, or a nightstand without taking over the space. If you want something larger, our other mixed arrangements come in bigger vases; this one stays intentionally compact.
Where Purples in Paris Fits: We built this one for small celebrations and quiet wins, though it covers a promotion or a warm thank-you just as well. It makes a welcoming desk gift for someone who'd rather have something understated than a big bouquet, whatever the reason. Shop flowers like this anytime a desk needs something quieter.
When Seasonal Flowers Run Short: Working with fresh flowers means color and variety can shift a little with the season. If a lily or orchid isn't at its best, our designers substitute something just as fresh and just as purple, so the overall look stays true to what's pictured.
Same Day Flower Delivery: Order by 2:00 PM in the recipient's time zone (noon on Sundays) and most areas get this cube the same day. Farther out, our nationwide network of local florists helps deliver it on time.
Enough oriental lilies and Dendrobium orchids to fill the 4.75 inch cube without crowding it. Exact counts shift with what's freshest that day, though the purple and violet color story stays consistent.
A little. Both are available most of the year, but sourcing can shift the exact shade or bloom stage. If we're ever out of one, we swap in something just as purple, a swap any florist would make.
