Bouquets

Bouquets of grasses (ornamental barley, millet, quaking grass) look better in glass vases. For large heavy flowers (gladiolus, delphinium) are suitable for coarse ceramic vases. Carnations, roses, put in expensive vase (crystal), as well as vases of clear glass. Low-growing plants and flowers with short stems (violet, lilies, snowdrops, primroses) are placed in a low flat vase. Elegant fragile flowers look good in glass or porcelain white vase. The vase should have good proportions, shape and color. For a modern residential interior best fit simple shapes – cylindrical, spherical, cubic, made of metal, ceramic, glass and combinations of these materials.

High flowers with long stems can be very interesting to assemble a low flat or round vases by the so-called "hedgehogs" – stands out with a metal needle facing upwards, which stems prick. At the same time the flowers are short can not be put in high vase, as in this case violated their mutual proportions, and they look better in a low wide pot. Beautiful bouquets of two or three-color bright colors in a clear glass: large white daisies, red carnations dressing, tea roses or tulips. We must remember here that flowers of one kind and color are in the room longer than mixed. More resistant asters, chrysanthemums, small, plants with long stems, good clean teams in large vases. Tattooed for bouquets – lead plate round with soldered into it with sharp brass spikes or nails – is the perfect holder for creating flower arrangements in vases, flat.

Tattoo can be replaced by a holder of a soft stainless steel wire, crumpled into a ball. For stability of the composition in the wire coil can be woven into the stone. The resulting lattice supports plants in the right direction. Flat holders can be made of sheet aluminum thickness of 2-3 mm or organic glass. At the plate, having a round or oval-shaped holes are then closed vases plates and the holes put the flowers. At that time, until you decide where and in what bowl put the bouquet, flowers quickly and quickly bring your bouquet.
