What Are Sola Wood Flowers?

Sola wood flowers are handcrafted blooms made from the soft, natural wood of the sola plant. They're carefully shaped and finished to look just like fresh florals — and they're surprisingly soft to the touch, with lightweight petals that feel delicate, not stiff.

What Is Sola Wood

Sola wood comes from a tapioca plant root. It is a tropical species of the Euphorbiaceae (spurge) family. Poinsettias and castor oil plants also belong to this family. The tapioca plant is known by many names: cassava, manioc, arrowroot, and sometimes yuca (don't get that confused with the yucca succulent plant). Cassava (Tapioca) plants grow in tropical climates. These plants are extremely drought resistant.

How Are Sola Wood Flowers Made?

Sola wood flowers are made by hand, out of sholapith. A soft fast-growing wood. Once turned into flexible sheets, the flowers are then hand-folded into various shapes. Our entirely hand-made process is why our flowers are different and can be formed to replicate various live flowers.

Our raw sola wood flowers are made entirely by hand.

What are Bark and No Bark Flowers?

Bark is the part of the flower that is left on the Sola Wood when the flower is produced. No bark flowers had this bark removed to better display their distinct raw-white coloration.

See how soft, realistic, and wedding-ready sola flowers truly are.

Select Your Colors

You can personalize this bouquet by choosing your own dye colors. Check out our 50+ dye color options by viewing our dye color gallery!

Colors used in the finished examples are Powder Pink, Eggplant, Burgundy, Raw (Undyed). Centerpiece Stain Color is Raw.

2:1
Since sola wood flowers are porous, the best way to get the entire flower painted is to dip them in Sola Wood Flowers dye mixed with water (2:1 ratio of water to dye for a rich, bold color that really pops!)
1:10
We recommend using a 1:10 ratio. It will create a mixture that softens the flowers in such a way that they become “squishy” and more flexible.

Can I customize love story colors? Yes! While our Love Story collection features powder pink, eggplant, burgundy, cream, we offer custom color matching services. You can request specific shades to perfectly complement your wedding palette.

Wedding flowers are a cherished tradition - unfortunately they are fast becoming an unaffordable tradition!

This very issue struck a chord with Alex, one of the founders of our company, when he was planning his wedding.

Alex had previously created the world’s first sola company, which was even on Shark Tank! He had sold his part of the company to a private equity firm…but they ran it into the ground.

The fact that nobody was doing a good job of bringing the beauty and affordability of sola to the world really bothered him…

Alex then embarked on a quest to make beautiful wedding florals more accessible and budget-friendly. Determined to share this discovery with others, Alex joined forces with Mehtab, and together they set out to bring sola to the world!

Their adventure began when they stumbled upon a struggling business that offered sola wood flowers for sale. Recognizing the immense value and potential of the first sola wood brand ever, they knew it was essential to take ownership and revitalize it.

With unwavering determination, they worked tirelessly to restore the company to its former glory. Working more than 80 hours a week for years on end, sleeping in the factory, and building a team that was just as passionate about bringing sola to the world!

Through their commitment and hard work, Mehtab and Alex succeeded in turning the once-insolvent enterprise into a company that now does almost 10% of weddings in the US!

Today, we proudly employ 120 talented individuals, including a team of master florists who pour their expertise and passion into crafting exquisite handcrafted arrangements made with sola wood flowers.

To ensure the safe journey of our flowers from our hands to yours, we meticulously package each order with the utmost care and then ship them from Texas. Our flowers are carefully protected, so they arrive at your doorstep in perfect condition, ready to bring joy and beauty to your special day.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are these cheaper than fresh wedding flowers?

Absolutely. Sola wood flowers typically cost 50-70% less than fresh florals. Plus, you can order months in advance without worrying about wilting, and they make perfect keepsakes after your big day.

How far in advance should I order?

We recommend ordering 3-6 months before your wedding date. This gives you plenty of time for DIY assembly or allows our Build-It-For-Me service to craft your arrangements with care. Rush orders are available if needed.

What if I need help choosing quantities?

Our wedding flower specialists are here to help! Contact us with your wedding details, and we'll provide personalized recommendations for bouquets, boutonnieres, centerpieces, and more based on your venue size and guest count.

How Long Do The Flowers Last... Do They Expire?

When correctly cared for, sola wood flowers last for a very long time and will not expire! Keep them in a cool, dry place and remove them from the bag as soon as they arrive. If you dye your flowers, try to keep them out of direct sunlight and humid rooms.

Will The Flowers Retain Their Shape?

Our flowers are relatively soft and made entirely by hand. They may lose a bit of shape but fear not, this can easily be fixed by fluffing the flowers.

Do The Flowers Come With Stems?

Flowers do not come with stems - but we do offer stems!

Can They Be Displayed Outside?

Yes but they may run into issues over time if exposed to severe heat, water or humidity. Some customers apply clear coat if they want to keep their flowers outdoors.

Can Sola Wood Flowers Be Scented?

Yes, due to the natural material used scents take hold very well and last 3 - 6 months, check out our sola wood scents to do so !

Can I Customize My Arrangement?

Yes, you can customize your wedding flowers! On a majority of our floral arrangements you can customize the colors. On all custom arrangements like Custom Large Bouquet you can customize the bark type (bark or no bark), the greenery, colors and the bouquet handle.

Do You Ship Overseas?

Due to high demand, we are currently unable to ship outside of the United States and Canada.
