Waxflower Variety Guide: Descriptions for Florists and Event Planners

CalMex Floral has been growing Waxflower in the San Diego region for decades. With a climate not too far off from this species' native habitat of Australia, we are able to cultivate high quality waxflower in dozens of different color combinations and sizes.

We have been leading the charge of introducing new varieties and trending color variations to the floral industry for years. We know how confusing it can be to navigate all the names, colors, and options in the Waxflower family, let alone figure out when they are in season. 

Our handy Waxflower catalog is a great resource for professional florists and DIY event planners alike. With high quality photos, this guide showcases key characteristics and differences between each variety. From cup and petal color, to relative size of each flower, and special notes about unique details. 



Need more information about your favorite Waxflower? Complete descriptions of each variety are linked below. Click through to learn more in depth information about each variety and their common uses. While there are many more varieties that exist in the floral trade, this catalog and list focuses specifically on the options that we grow in our fields and have available through different months of the year.
