Element 109 — Lise Meitner — Physics

Element 109, later named meitnerium, honors a scientist whose work reshaped atomic physics. Lise Meitner was an Austrian-Swedish physicist who co-discovered nuclear fission and, crucially, provided the correct theoretical explanation of how and why the atomic nucleus splits. Although the Nobel Prize was awarded solely to her collaborator Otto Hahn, the broader scientific community has long recognized her central role. Naming an element after her in the periodic table permanently inscribed that correction.

This composition features blush and hydrangea, Juliet garden roses, Keira garden roses, Bombastic spray roses, anthurium, and mattiola. Its contained intensity reflects Meitner’s achievement and mirrors the atomic force and element’s power.

Due to seasonal availability and daily market supply, the exact flower varieties in a composition may change. Upon your request, we can always adjust the flower varieties or recreate the composition in a different colour palette. Please note that all our compositions can be arranged as a bouquet, in a round box, or in a hand-made basket.
