Floral Design Set 3

Define: Processing Flowers

• cell process in which stored food reserves are converted into useful energy for the plant

• Growers, wholesalers and retail florist must process their flowers

• a citric acid solution that causes flowers to take up water rapidly to prevent dehydration after flowers being dry packed

• a chemical consisting of a mixture of ingredients that when added to water extends the vase life of cut flowers by lowering the water PH

Define: Floral Preservative

• cell process in which stored food reserves are converted into useful energy for the plant

• Growers, wholesalers and retail florist must process their flowers

• a citric acid solution that causes flowers to take up water rapidly to prevent dehydration after flowers being dry packed

• a chemical consisting of a mixture of ingredients that when added to water extends the vase life of cut flowers by lowering the water PH

• Growers, wholesalers and retail florist must process their flowers

• a citric acid solution that causes flowers to take up water rapidly to prevent dehydration after flowers being dry packed

• a chemical consisting of a mixture of ingredients that when added to water extends the vase life of cut flowers by lowering the water PH

Define: Transpiration

• the process of plants losing water through stomata in their leaves

• a combination of both natural and man made materials in an unnatural manner to create new images

• an asymmetrically balanced design of few materials usually placed in groups that emphasize forms and lines

• design that consists of clusters or groups of flowers and foliage that strengthens the element of line which moves the eye through the arrangement

Define: Interpretive Design

• the process of plants losing water through stomata in their leaves

• a combination of both natural and man made materials in an unnatural manner to create new images

• an asymmetrically balanced design of few materials usually placed in groups that emphasize forms and lines

• design that consists of clusters or groups of flowers and foliage that strengthens the element of line which moves the eye through the arrangement

Define: Formal Linear Design

• a combination of both natural and man made materials in an unnatural manner to create new images

• an asymmetrically balanced design of few materials usually placed in groups that emphasize forms and lines

• design that consists of clusters or groups of flowers and foliage that strengthens the element of line which moves the eye through the arrangement

Define: Parallel Design

• the process of plants losing water through stomata in their leaves

• a combination of both natural and man made materials in an unnatural manner to create new images

• an asymmetrically balanced design of few materials usually placed in groups that emphasize forms and lines

• design that consists of clusters or groups of flowers and foliage that strengthens the element of line which moves the eye through the arrangement

Define: Line Flowers

• the design consists of several layers of materials, varying in size and texture to create a flowering effect

• are usually single stem with large rounded heads used inside or along the arrangement to fill in

• used to create focal point with unusual and distinctive shapes

• used as primary flowers to establish the skeleton outline height or width of an arrangement
