Stabilized jacaranda is a decorative plant prepared using a special preservation method that preserves its natural appearance and flexibility while simultaneously inhibiting its life processes. This exotic species, known for its characteristic green, openwork leaves, once stabilized becomes a permanent interior design element, requiring neither watering nor exposure to sunlight.
At Vikingmoss we specialize in providing the highest quality preserved plants, including jacaranda, which is becoming increasingly popular among customers seeking durable, yet natural-looking decorations. Preserved jacaranda is a response to the needs of those who value the aesthetics of natural elements but lack the time for regular plant care.
What is stabilized jacaranda and how is it made?
Stabilized jacaranda is a natural plant that has undergone a preservation process that halts its growth while maintaining its flexibility and natural appearance. The jacaranda stabilization process involves replacing the plant's natural sap with a special glycerin-based preservative solution, which preserves its characteristic green color.
stabilization technique we use at Vikingmoss is based on years of experience and proven methods that preserve the characteristic structure of jacaranda leaves while protecting them from drying out and crumbling. Stabilization is a much more advanced process than simple drying – it allows the plant to remain flexible and pleasant to the touch.
The jacaranda is a native South American tree that can reach heights of up to 15 meters. We use carefully selected branches from young specimens for stabilization to ensure the highest quality of the final product.
Differences between stabilized and dried jacaranda
Stabilized jacaranda differs significantly from dried jacaranda in several key properties. Stabilized plants retain their flexibility and are resistant to mechanical damage , while dried plants become brittle and fragile.
Our research indicates that preserved jacaranda has a 78% longer shelf life than dried jacaranda. The table below outlines the key differences between these two preservation methods:
| Characteristic | Stabilized Jacaranda | Dried jacaranda |
|---|---|---|
| Flexibility | High | Low (fragile) |
| Durability | 5-7 years | 1-2 years |
| Natural look | Very good | Mediocre |
| Need for maintenance | Minimum | Mean |
| Dust resistance | High | Low |
Our customers often emphasize that they choose stabilized jacaranda precisely for its durability and natural appearance. Our experience shows that with proper care, it can retain its decorative qualities for up to seven years.
Characteristics of stabilized green jacaranda
Stabilized jacaranda is available exclusively in green, which is its natural and unique quality. The intensity of the green may vary slightly depending on the batch and stabilization time, but it always remains within the green palette.
The green color of stabilized jacaranda blends perfectly with a variety of interior styles, adding a fresh and natural character. This universal shade makes jacaranda incredibly versatile in decorative applications.
Our company's proven stabilization techniques allow us to preserve the natural structure of the leaves while maintaining their vibrant green color.

The use of stabilized jacaranda in interior design
The stabilized jacaranda is an incredibly versatile decorative element that can be used in a variety of spaces. Its openwork, green leaves and subtle structure make it a perfect addition to both modern and classic interiors.
Our experience shows that stabilized jacaranda looks particularly good in the following arrangements:
Jacaranda stabilized in the living room
The living room is a space where the stabilized jacaranda can serve as a focal point. Its delicate, green leaves look beautiful in tall vases as a standalone decoration or in combination with other stabilized plants. Check out our article on plants for the living room.
In modern interiors, especially those in a Scandinavian or minimalist style, green jacarandas provide a subtle accent that breaks up the starkness of the space. Our clients often choose to place them in vases with simple, geometric shapes.
In warmer interiors, jacarandas contrast beautifully with browns and beiges, adding a touch of freshness. Jacaranda branches can also be incorporated into larger compositions with stabilized moss , creating interesting plant images .
Jacaranda stabilized in the bedroom
In the bedroom, stabilized jacarandas are perfect as low-maintenance decorations that don't affect air quality. This is especially important in a room where we spend a significant portion of our time.
According to research, natural elements in the bedroom , such as preserved plants, significantly improve sleep quality. Jacaranda, with its subtlety and delicate green color, perfectly complements the atmosphere of relaxation.
Proven bedroom arrangements include:
- Small compositions on the bedside table
- Single branches in slender vases on the dresser
- Larger compositions placed on the floor in tall vases
Stabilized Jacaranda in office spaces
Offices and commercial spaces are particularly popular for stabilized jacarandas due to their maintenance-free nature and durability. Unlike live plants, they require no watering or exposure to sunlight.
Our experience with corporate clients shows that stabilized jacaranda is perfect for:
- Reception desks and waiting rooms
- Conference rooms
- Offices and open space areas
- Relaxation and rest zones
Mixed-flower arrangements, combining green jacaranda with stabilized moss and other stabilized plants, are particularly popular in office spaces
Care and durability of stabilized jacaranda
One of the greatest advantages of stabilized jacaranda is its minimal maintenance requirements. Unlike live plants, stabilized jacarandas do not require watering, fertilization, or access to sunlight.
How to care for stabilized jacaranda?
The care of stabilized jacaranda is limited to a few simple rules:
- Avoid direct contact with water – stabilized jacaranda should not be watered or sprinkled, as this may damage the leaf structure.
- Protect from excessive sunlight – prolonged exposure to intense sunlight may cause the green color to fade.
- Vacuum regularly – gently dusting with a soft brush once every 2-3 months will keep your jacaranda looking fresh.
- Maintain moderate air humidity – extremely dry air can affect leaf elasticity, although this is not as critical as with live plants.
Our many years of experience working with preserved plants show that, with proper care, jacarandas retain their appearance for up to 5-7 years. This is significantly longer than dried plants, which typically lose their attractiveness after 1-2 years.
Durability of stabilized jacaranda in various conditions
The shelf life of stabilized jacaranda depends on the conditions it is stored in. The table below presents estimated shelf life under various conditions, based on our observations and customer experience:
| Conditions | Estimated durability | Comments |
|---|---|---|
| Ideal (moderate temperature, no direct sun) | 5-7 years | The best conditions for maintaining color and elasticity |
| Standard residential interior | 4-6 years old | Typical conditions in most houses and apartments |
| Rooms with air conditioning | 3-4 years | Beneficial for maintaining durability |
| High sunlight | 2-3 years | Possible fading of the green color |
| Large fluctuations in humidity | 2-3 years | May affect leaf elasticity |
| Public spaces with high traffic volume | 2-3 years | Increased risk of mechanical damage |
It is worth noting that even in the most unfavorable conditions, stabilized jacaranda retains its appearance much longer than most decorations made of cut flowers or dried plants.
Stabilized jacaranda in compositions with other plants
The stabilized jacaranda blends perfectly with other stabilized plants, creating striking arrangements. Its delicate, openwork structure and green color provide an interesting contrast to more substantial elements.
Popular combinations of jacaranda with other stabilized plants
Based on our experience in creating compositions for Vikingmossclients, we can recommend the following combinations:
- Jacaranda + reindeer moss – delicate, green jacaranda twigs contrast perfectly with the fluffy structure of the reindeer moss, creating a dynamic composition.
- Jacaranda + stabilized eucalyptus – the combination of two openwork plants with different leaf structures and shades of green creates an extremely elegant effect.
- Jacaranda + stabilized pampas grass – the combination of delicate, green jacaranda with expressive, beige pampas grass creates a composition with an interesting texture and contrasting colors.
- Jacaranda + flat moss – green jacaranda branches growing from a background of flat moss is one of the most frequently chosen combinations by our customers.
It's worth remembering that, due to its delicate structure, jacaranda looks best as an element that adds lightness to a composition. In our projects, we often use it as a finishing touch.
Buying stabilized jacaranda – what to pay attention to?
When choosing stabilized jacaranda, it is worth paying attention to several key factors that influence its quality and durability.
Quality criteria for stabilized jacaranda
- Flexibility – high-quality stabilized jacaranda should retain its natural flexibility, without any signs of brittleness or breakage.
- Color – the green color should be uniform, without discoloration or fading, which may indicate an incorrect stabilization process.
- Smell – good quality stabilized jacaranda should not emit an intense chemical smell; a slight glycerin smell is natural.
