Where to buy great silk/latex flowers???(help!) (color, designs, best)

[goodgal]

Years ago I remember buying magnolias flowers from Michaels craft Store to make a wreath. (years ago!) They almost felt like latex yet were silk but were extremely realistic looking. I have never seen another flower done like they were and the quality Michael's stores used to carry is not there in my opinion. Can anyone steer me to an online site or retail store? Thanks!

Are you looking for flowers to make for arrangements or things already made? The best ones I've seen are at Home Goods.

Specialty interior design stores (high end) usually have wonderful faux flowers. When I lived in So. California, Roger's Gardens in Newport Beach had the very best and largest inventory....I miss that store. For Christmas wreats I just bought some faux magnolia stems with a center cone - realistic and large - they were $15 a stem....real magnolia branches will live in water (oasis or vase) for several weeks.
