Place two flowers level with each other when making a massarrangement. Forget that Violets absorb moisture through their petals when cut, sothey need not reach water in an arrangement. Should they wilt theycan be revived by submersion in water. Forget to scrape the stem ends of such flowers as Chrysanthemums,Stocks, Marigold and other plants of the semi-woody variety. Thisremoves the outer substance and avoids bacteria forming slime whichblocks the intake of water. Push the flowers upright into a vase. Make the lower ones flow outalmost horizontally to gain extra dimension and effect. Be discouraged if some flowers are too short to take their place in adesign : try placing them in a hollow stem of another longer flowerwhich will feed the smaller one through its own intake of water. |
