Do any of you know if there is a funeral flower arrangement book in the market?

I need to buy books that has a great deal of photos for funeral flowers arrangement. I also need to get books on room decorating tips for funeral parlor.
Do any of you know if there is a funeral flower arrangement book in the market?
Say
FlowersBirthday FlowersSympathy FlowersContact an established local florist in your area. The florist would have several books on funeral flowers and could either sell you some of their books or give you a good source of where to secure one. Also, look for the nearest Floral Syndicate store, or a First Distributor - these are wholesalers for florists - they have books on sympathy flowers by John Henry. The books show the flowers in the funeral home setting, so you could get ideas on decorating your funeral home.
Reply:There are some funeral flower arrangement catalogs online at any maj`/,tlower shop.

I%26#039;m not sure about the funeral parlor decorating.
Reply:the best books out there with funeral flowers are the wire service books. go on ebay and look for teleflora or ftd books that florists may be selling. if you are decorating the funeral home, is it for business purposes so clients will order from you or is it for the purpose of general decorating? i am curious, if you are doing this as a business, why dont you already have the books or pics of past work you have done. clients do not want to see a picture book they want to see pics of what you have done.


for decorating the funeral home, subtle arrangements in the color scheme that will coordinate with funeral homes style . there is no special decorating involvedmake up

Flower opinions needed!! In my wedding, I want to use red Gerber daisies in my bridesmaids arrangements?

But.... I need some ideas for the boutonnieres for the guys. If they use gerbers daisies - I think they will look like clowns. You know, the ones that squirt water. I am not a fan of roses - but am open to any other flower. Thanks for your opinion! :)

carns, minicarns,glad florettes





ask your florist for suggestions, look at the wedding books
Reply:Are you opposed to carnations? They%26#039;re inexpensive and very pretty IMO. The poppy is a good, clean, simple red flower guys can appreciate, too.
Reply:I agree about the clown thing, I got a chuckle out of that one. I agree that a Carnation is nice. I really depends on what flowers are in season. Here are a few suggestions:


Chrysanthemum, Hydrangea, or Orchids. There are also mixed follage boutonnieres that don%26#039;t have any flowers but still look nice. Good Luck %26amp; Congrats
Reply:I like a few little roses, not one big one -

Carns are nice and last long. Our guys wore four small ones -

The following pic is a corsage, but the asters look similar to gerberas, but are smaller and you could probably get them in the right shade of red -

Reply:Get the guys some nice carnations.
Reply:Gerber daisies are beautiful - great choice. For the boutonnieres you could do mini Gerber daisies, or if you do not want to do that you could try: a dark red calla lily (beautiful flowers) red carnation or an orchid.





Good luck and congrats!


here is a site with some boutonniere photos to check out:

Reply:I understand what you are saying about clowns, it made me laugh! If you use gerbra daisies for your bridesmaids, considering miniature gerbra daisies for the groomsmen. This way, they still match, but do not look like clowns! I think it would look classy. Maybe a tiny bunch of three.





sidenote: nothing against other people%26#039;s oppinion, but carnations are a bit overdone.make up

Is there something you can put i a cut flower arrangement's water to prolong the blooms???

my 8 year old daughter is entering an %26quot;arrangement%26quot; at our local fair. I have the flowers refrigerated until we leave today BUT, what can I use in the water to %26quot;keep%26quot; the flowers looking fresh longer???

Reply:put sugar in the water
Reply:The myth buster folks did a check on what to use on christmas trees to keep them fresh. I think they found out the sprays worked best... however, of the things that you put in water, sugar actually made them last a shorter time. I%26#039;ve found that%26#039;s true with flowers too.





People used to put a copper penny in ... I never found that worked.





I%26#039;ve used aspirin... with little success.





The packets that they sell with fresh cut flowers work well. I think they basically contain sugar in a form that%26#039;s usable by plants, an acidifier, and something to kill the bacteria in the water. This works better than the home remedies, which tend to address only one of the needs, and sometimes not well.
Reply:add a couple of drops bleach or milton to the water. It stops bacteria forming, thus no smelly water and soggy rotten stems. Some people suggest sugar etc but I find this simply makes the flowers wilt faster...


Good luck with your daughter%26#039;s entry :-)skin disease
