A duchess rose is a type of composite flower, which is created from multiple flowers to create one flower. They are created by gluing or wiring petals or flower parts together to create a larger or more intricate bloom. Below is a photo of one we’ve created with rose petals.  The overall size is about four times the original size of a standard rose.  You can make these larger or smaller depending on the look you are going for.  I think they are very romantic, fun and different looking.

You can also create composite type flowers with gladiolus, orchids, and a variety of other types of flowers and foliages.  The options are endless!
