Drying flowers
The drying of flowers, flowers and other natural elements is a popular process of nature lovers who want to preserve the shape and aesthetics of the plants. Over the centuries, various methods of drying have developed, depending on the later use of the plants, certain methods are preferable to others. Those who are more interested in flowers and plants for scientific reasons can opt for drying the press. In this case, leaves or flowers are separated from the living plant and placed between heavy objects such as books or professional metal plates. The flower dries in this case by the lack of water supply and is brought by the acting weight directly into a form that can not be changed after removal of the weights. In order to preserve the original shape of a bouquet for decorative purposes, however, the adjustment of the water supply is recommended a few days before the optimal flowering of the bouquet, setting up in a sunlit and warm place can accelerate the process of drying. If the bouquet has taken its dry form, its shape can be stabilized by special spray or spray paint from retailers to prevent the exfoliation of individual plant elements. Even roots, branches, berries and other elements of nature can be dried in this way and preserved for the future.
Our product tips
Adhesive tape is one of the most important aids in floristry and horticulture, but is also used in numerous other areas of life. Basically, the term all pressure-sensitive adhesives are summarized, which are applied to films, tapes or papers and thereby allow the adhesion of these materials to objects with various surface structures. Both modern and double-sided adhesive tape are offered in modern retailers. The latter is suitable for the direct bonding of two materials without the need to look at the adhesive itself. If hiding of the adhesive tape is not possible due to the superficial use, the choice is usually made of transparent adhesive tapes and films. In floristry, adhesive tape is mainly used in the packaging of bouquets or potted plants which, for practical or decorative purposes, are wrapped in paper or foil prior to dispensing to the customer. Adhesive tape, which can be easily torn off a tape dispenser, allows these wrapping materials to be simply glued to the end, providing good protection and a pleasing appearance right up to the moment of unpacking. As an alternative to adhesive tape, the work with hot glue guns has become established, but these are used more in the decoration area and help in the design of wreaths, arrangements and other decorations. Cheap adhesive tape for the floristic environment can also be discovered at floristik21.de and acquired by private and commercial customers.
