Design/Merchandising
Suggestions<:
- If you are "pre-greening"
floral foam prior to a holiday, spray ferns with commercial antitranspirant
or a leaf gloss product to cover fronds with a protective coat and help
minimize water loss. Follow directions. Note that spraying too close
with an aerosol can cause "freeze" damage to the fronds
- Use in hand-tied bouquets and arrangements to add fullness, color
and texture to design and to cover any foam, tape, etc.
- Make sure stems
are long enough to reach the water reservoir when using floral foam.
Ferns do need to drink!
- Set up an area
for customers to pick out their own stems for bouquets and provide conditioned
greens in small bunches to enhance their selections.
