Composition facts

Form, Line, Texture, and Fragrance

Form

§ Explanation : Form defines the overall shape and silhouette of the arrangement. It helps create a strong visual impression from a distance.

§ Examples of arrangements:

– Biedermeier bouquet: Compact, round form — uses flowers like roses (Rosa spp.) and dahlias (Dahlia cultivars).

– Parallel arrangement: Vertical lines create a structured rectangular form — often with grasses, gladiolus, or delphinium.

– Fan-shaped arrangement: Used in hotel lobbies or large receptions — emphasizes a wide, fan-like form with strong symmetry.

Form

§ Dahlia – round form

§ Calla (Zantedeschia) – funnel form

§ Gloriosa – star-shaped form

§ Explanation :

§ Line gives direction and movement to the design, guiding the viewer’s eye.

§ Examples of arrangements:

– Ikebana (Japanese floral art): Very strong use of line, often with minimalist stems and branches.

– Vertical arrangements: Tall vases with flowers like gladiolus (Gladiolus spp.) or eremurus (Eremurus robustus) to accentuate height.

– Cascade bridal bouquet: Flowing downward line with trailing flowers such as orchids or ivy.

Floweracademy.nl Blooming your future

§ Gladiolus – strong vertical line

§ Delphinium – upward line

§ Eremurus – tall, slender line

Texture

§ Explanation :

§ Texture refers to the surface quality (smooth, rough, airy, dense), adding depth and interest.

§ Examples of arrangements:

– Natural, wild meadow-style bouquets: Combining fine textures (grasses, ferns) with rough or bold flowers like sunflowers (Helianthus annuus).

– Tropical arrangements: Bold, glossy textures from anthurium and monstera leaves.

– Mixed seasonal centerpieces: Juxtaposing coarse hydrangea (Hydrangea macrophylla) with fine-textured asparagus fern.

Wet or dry? េស)មឬសBnត?

How

much water or RV (%) does a plant need?

§ By looking at a plant you already know a lot.

§ Looking at leaf thickness

• Soft leaf = lots of water + higher RH (more spraying)

• Thick / fat leaf = succulent properties in leaf

• little water, lower RH (less / no spraying)

§ Looking at stem / stem / root

• Succulent properties

• The more or the thicker the stem, the easier it is for the plant to grow.

• The thicker the root, the easier it is to care for / less water

• The finer the root, the more regular the water

Wet / humid or dry?

Dark colored is moist

Light colored is dry

How much water does a plant need?

§ By looking at a plant you already know a lot.

§ Looking at the leaf thickness

– Soft leaves

§ more and regular water

§ higher RH (more spraying)

– Thick / fat leaves = succulent chacteristics in leaves

§ Less or little water,

§ Lower RH (less / no spraying)

How

much water does a plant need in relation to succulent characteristics

§ Succulent characteristics = ability to survive in dry periods.

§ Succulent characteristics can be found in: – Root – Stem / trunk – Leaf = succulent

§ The more or the thicker the stem, the easier the plant

§ The thicker the root, the easier to care for / less water

§ The finer the root, the more regular watering

Roots of plants says something…..

Too dry or too wet? When watering, pay attention

to:

§ Always water from below for soft-leaved plants:

– Annuals, perennials, flowering houseplants

– Larger pot sizes can be watered on the pot

§ Never leave tables with water:

– Ebb and flow tables or after rain showers

§ Plants with fine rootsystem sometimes dip

– Rhododendron (Azalea), Cyclamen etc

§ Plants with softer leaves not too close to each other

Plant care

§ Watering:

§ Make sure customers aren't hindered

– Or in the morning: in normal weather

– Or in the evening: § is better when weather is warm / hot

– High evaporation + better water absorption at night

– Sometimes 2 times a day in extreme weather

Watering:

§ With a water-giving-schedule

§ Pay attention to weather forecasts

§ Sometimes need to water on Sunday

§ Sometimes necessary to water 2 times a day

§ Flowering products never from above – This causes Botrytis

– Water on the pot or from from below

§ Sometimes dipping (hanging plants)

§ Sometimes change water (aquatic plants)

Check watering

§ First check if the plants need water by means of "thumb test”

– press the thumb into the earth

– with dry thumb, water

– soil sticks, does not water

– on hot summer days (25+) check again at the end of the day

How to give water?

When does a plant need watering?

§ Feels soil on top of pot dry

§ Feels pot heavy

§ Is the plant large or small

§ How is the ratio of leaf / stems

§ At what time of the year is it

§ Is it a herbaceous or woody

§ A greasy or soft-leaved species

By looking you estimate how much water the plant needs

Water over the plant?

§ Never with flowering plants

– In connection with Botrytis danger

§ Only with green plants

– Plant shows fresh

– Increases humidity = leaf tips and edges

Plant maintenance

§ Checking plants every day:

§ Remove faded flowers

§ Remove yellow, brown leaves

§ Weekly:

§ Removing weeds from pots

Turning out the stem in Cyclamen: risk of rotting

Remove faded flowers!

Check: Sand or bugs??

Remove yellow leaves

Remove yellow and withered and dried leaves

Botrytis on plants = broei / smet / smeul / spikkel etc
