Hi everyone,

I love the little purple flowers/buds in these pictures but we can't figure out what it is. Any ideas? Thanks!

    That is a variety of eucalyptus.  I worked in a florist and we called it hanging eucalyptus but it is also known as Nichol's Willow-Leafed Peppermint.  The buds in your picture are the berry shaped portion of this greenery and were sprayed purple/blue.  This plant is naturally all green but can come in a burgandy color as well.  We used this alot in bouquets and also cascading out of the bottom of the centerpieces.  The amount of berries/buds really very from one bunch of the eucalyptus to another and sometimes the leaves are more round in shape then long and thin.  Hope this helps!
