One of my readers recently asked me what the yellow flower is in my previous post, so I’d like to share the answer with those who also have a curiousity about these mysterious little flower.

The flower is called Craspedia aka ”billy buttons” “billy balls” or “woollyheads”. I’m sure you have seen them everywhere including decorating blogs or in magazines but seemingly it is most commonly used as a wedding accessory.

This flower is dried & preserved so that the color will never fade and will last for decades. I really love its poppy vivid golden yellow color. I almost use them everywhere in my house!
If you are planning to purchase Billy Balls in the US, I highly recommend the online store, hammelmans because not a lot of florist carries them and also you can receive over 20 stems (mine was over 30) for only $6.25 (+ shipping fee) with super quick delivery!


Thsnk you so much for this wonderful post, it made my day ! I order the ever so coveted Billy balls/buttons, craspedia delights through hammelmans . I truly enjoy your blog.
@Azerina: Thanks for your kind words. I hope you will enjoy your new billy balls.
