Discover Shola Flowers: The Sustainable & Handcrafted Alternative to Artificial Flowers
In a world where conscious living and sustainability are paramount, it’s time to rethink our home decor. Enter Shola flowers—the eco-friendly rising star in home aesthetics. Unlike conventional artificial flowers made from plastic, these beautiful, handcrafted blooms are made from the soft, inner bark of the Shola plant (Aeschynomene aspera). They bring a serene, natural touch to your living space, perfectly aligning with the peaceful, organic vibe of a Coastal Habitat.
What Are Sola Flowers? From Marsh to Masterpiece
Also known as sola flowers or sholapith flowers, these unique blooms are a testament to nature's elegance and artisanal skill. The material is a soft, woody substance harvested naturally from marshy areas in Eastern India and Bangladesh. Skilled artisans then expertly transform the plant’s core into thin sheets, meticulously handcrafting each and every petal. The result? A stunningly realistic flower that feels soft to the touch and carries a story in its every detail.
Why Coastal Habitat's Shola Flowers are the Smart Choice
You have a choice when it comes to decorating your home. Here’s why sola flowers are not just a design decision, but a reflection of conscious living.
1. Ditch the Plastic: A True Eco-Friendly Flower
The market is flooded with plastic, mass-produced artificial flowers that are harmful to our planet. Our Shola flowers are different. They are 100% natural, fully biodegradable, and contain no harmful plastics or toxic dyes. By choosing us, you are making a positive impact, one petal at a time.
2. Handcrafted: A Story in Every Petal
Every single bloom in our collection is a labor of love. The knowledge and craftsmanship of these artisans are passed down through generations, making each flower truly unique. The intricate detail and natural finish of these sholapith flowers bring an authentic, earthy feel that plastic can never replicate.

Life is busy. Your home decor shouldn't be a chore. Shola flowers do not wilt, fade, or require water, making them the ultimate low-maintenance beauty solution. With proper care, they offer everlasting elegance and style to your space.
