Proclaimed in 1959, Queensland's Cooktown Orchid (Dendrobium bigibbum) is one of Australia's nine magnificent floral emblems. Often regarded as the Australia's most colourful and popular orchid species, it was first collected on a small island north east of Cape York and sent to London, where it was described and named in 1852 by John Lindley, a colleague of Sir Joseph Banks. It thrives in high temperatures and its flowers can vary from white to deep purple.

BEHIND THE DESIGN

Nine flowers,

one Australian story.

Meryl created the Floral Emblems series with an ambitious idea in mind: to make these nine paintings a definitive artistic representation of Australia’s national, state and territory floral emblems. Each flower was given its own presence, captured with extraordinary attention to colour, form and detail.

Together, the works became Meryl’s ode to Australia through its flowers, nine individual emblems united in one elegant and spectacular series.

MADE FOR YOUR MESSAGE

Blank inside.

Made with care.

Flowers have a way of expressing so much, from joy and gratitude to love, sympathy and appreciation. Bell Art Floral Emblems cards are left blank inside, giving you the freedom to make the message entirely your own, whatever the occasion.

Designed and made in Australia using eco-friendly papers and inks, the cards, envelopes and packaging are recyclable. And their connection to Australian flora goes further than the artwork, with part proceeds from every Bell Art purchase supporting the Australian Flora Foundation and its research into our native plants.

“These cards are so beautiful they are a delight to send to friends and family and important clients as they are in themselves a gift to receive. Great quality, stunning artwork, highly recommend. Also great for overseas friends because they are quintessentially Australian without being 'kitsch'.”
