IFD Designer Tools

an apple a day Offer sweet sentiments with delectable faux fruit accents.

Fruits and flowers partner naturally, and permanent produce is just what the design doctor ordered because it will never spoil. Here, apples that look good enough to eat are formed into a garland and dropped onto the neck of a vase as a jaunty collar. Other faux fruits can be used as well, and the permanent-produce collars can be made in multiples to be added to creations as needed.

IFD Designer Tools Kick in the Plants BY J SCHWANKE, AAF, AIFD, PFCI

TERRARIUM DELIRIUM > Floral Management welcomes renowned industry veteran J Schwanke, AAF, AIFD, PFCI, who is determined to help retail florists give their plant sales a real “kick in the plants” (read: increased sales), with a year’s worth of buying, designing and merchandising ideas.

Why it’s Cool Terrariums (or terraria) have a unique retro appeal. At the same time, terrariums are eco-friendly and spark our natural instinct to create our own biosphere. Tropical, ground-dwelling (moisture-loving) plants such as ferns, begonias, baby tears or mosses thrive in the enclosed high humidity level of a terrarium. In addition, terrariums are low maintenance, and if created and cared for properly flourish with little more than a sunny window and an occasional misting or specific watering (see box).

RESOURCES uBloom.com has a complete how-to-video featuring terrariums, downloadable for $2 (free for uBloom members). Search “Terrariums” on the home page.

Dressing it Up New lines of 100 percent postconsumer recycled glass containers with matching lids are a great way to carry the eco-green nature of terrariums fashion-forward. Reclaiming or reusing containers that have lids creates a vintage collection-type influence (cookie jars, fish bowls, fruit jars — you get the idea). Offering miniature accessories, figurines, glass animals, even fairy garden furniture allows your mini-biospheres to be personalized or themed.

Promoting It Displaying terrariums in a collection of different shapes and sizes shows your customers your enthusiasm for them. Showing different price points encourages the wary to try out this fun trend.

FLORAL MANAGEMENT | JANUARY 2013 | WWW.SAFNOW.ORG

Try displaying miniature accessories, empty containers, additional terrariumsize plants, soil, gravel, clay pot shards, cork, decorative stones and turkey basters — to encourage DIYers to start a fun hobby! Offer a class or workshop on creating your own terrariums. The base cost can include all the basic materials, but allow them to upgrade the container, plants and accessories to really trick out their project. Fun for kids, too! J Schwanke AAF, AIFD, PFCI, is the flower expert and host of “Fun with Flowers and J” on uBloom.com. For recipe and sources, go to www.safnow.org/moreonline.

IFD Designer Tools Business of Design

cherry cheer Mitchell Rubner, alumnus of the Phil Rulloda Southern California School of Floral Design who’s been with Bouquets since October 2012, bonded a pair of bud vases together, creating a figure eight shaped base for this design. By capitalizing on negative space and arranging flowers with dramatic angles, Rubner made this design look like so much more than 10 tulips, three blades of Hala foliage and a few ornamental gems. Design time: 10 minutes. Wholesale costs: $13. Retail price: $50.

BLUES BUSTERS > Be it a trip to the Caribbean or the tanning salon, folks yearn for a pick-me-up in the cold, dark months of winter. Fortunately, florists have an antidote for seasonal affective disorder that’s easier on the wallet and much, much better for customers’ health. Now’s the time to market some simple, but bright arrangements to perk up someone’s day. We challenged the staff at Bouquets, a two-time Floral Management Marketer of the Year winning business, with locations in Denver and Vail Valley, Colo., to come up with two quick and easy designs that customers won’t be able to resist. They selected tulips, a winter staple, and gave the flowers a fresh, modern presentation. See safnow.org/moreonline for complete recipes. Katie Hendrick khendrick@safnow.org 42

FLORAL MANAGEMENT | JANUARY 2013 | WWW.SAFNOW.ORG

heart warmer Kari Smith, a fiveyear-veteran Bouquets employee who was recently promoted to lead designer at the Denver location, bunched tulips to make them fuller. Holding the tulip grouping in place: another wire, which has both function and fashion with its enchanting heart shape. (Smith made a template, so the wire can be replicated in advance for future arrangements to cut down on labor time.) Design time: 10 to 15 minutes. Wholesale costs: $12. Retail price: $45.

spice it up This savory topiary design cleverly displays a bridesmaid’s bouquet.

Topiaries remain popular centerpiece styles for wedding receptions. But they can serve a dual purpose as decorative receptacles for showcasing bridesmaids’ bouquets as well. In this design, a “trunk” created from cinnamon sticks conceals the bouquet holder handle and offers a hint of spicy fragrance.

how to

Hot-glue a bundle of cinnamon sticks into a plastic-foam-filled pot to form the trunk of the topiary. Nestle the handle of a bouquet holder into the center of the cinnamon stick bundle. Arrange fresh florals into the bouquet holder. MATERIALS: sea holly (Eryngium), statice (Limonium), Brunia and oregonia (Buxus) from favorite suppliers; moss and cinnamon sticks from Knud Nielsen Company; Montana Pot (whitewashed birch) from Accent Décor; Gala® Bouquet Holder and Styrofoam™ from FloraCraft; Oasis® Hot-Melt Glue from Oasis® Floral Products.

IFD Designer Tools

purse “bouquet” An up-to-date alternative for bridesmaids.

Designed to resemble a flower-covered purse, this stylish “handbag” is actually crafted using floral foam, so the blossoms will remain hydrated, which is important during the warm months of spring and summer. The water source also allows thirsty blossoms such as Hydrangeas, which might be avoided with other purse design methods, to be utilized. MATERIALS: ‘Cool Water’ roses, carnations, Hypericum, Hoya vines, salal leaves, wood picks and enameled wire from favorite suppliers; ribbon from Offray; Artesia The Floral Spa floral foam from FloraCraft; craft foam from crafts store.

crescent expression Color and texture combine for a masculine sympathy wreath.

Arranged on one side of a floral-foam wreath form, fiery florals, both fresh and dried, are balanced by a bounty of dried lotus pods on the other, creating a crescent of fall color in this striking tribute. The autumnal hues and coarse textures infuse the wreath with a distinct masculinity, making it a timely option for a man’s fall remembrance. MATERIALS: fresh ‘Sunset’ garden roses from Alexandra Farms; fresh uhule fern curls, Galax leaves and Viburnum foliage from favorite suppliers; dried lotus pods and Protea repens from Schusters of Texas; Never-Wilt® Snap-Fit Wreath from The John Henry Company.

IFD Designer Tools Care and Handling

Save the holiday > Florists have so much to consider

Get Your Clean On

around Valentine’s Day and, just a few months from now, Mother’s Day that it’s easy to assign a lower priority to routine tasks. But care and handling jobs, no matter how small or mundane, should be a central point of your holiday plans. Whether you’re scrambling to catch up for Valentine’s Day or planning ahead for Mother’s Day, here are three care-related tips to keep your product in picture-perfect shape.

Filling a dirty bucket with flower food is like eating caviar off a dirty plate. Around our industry’s big holidays, cleanliness is everything. Wash and sanitize all of your main tools, containers and surfaces before holiday product starts flowing in. Sharpen choppers and tools. Deep-clean coolers and arrange for a service call to vacuum compressors, so that you’re operating with improved energy efficiency. Wipe down shelves and walls with a commercial cleaner to rid surfaces of lingering Botrytis spores. Sanitize floors and floor drains.

To Thy Suppliers, Be True Great flowers start with excellent growers and trusted suppliers. Valentine’s success is the tipping point for a solid year, so stay solid. Avoid the urge to switch suppliers in response to fabulous price offers or unbelievable promises. When it comes to sourcing flowers, origins matter. Roses and carnations from Africa or Europe are different from South American staples (which represent the bulk of U.S. imports). Production in Colombia and Ecuador focuses on hybrid tea roses. African growers focus on more productive, intermediate (smaller) varieties. Cut stage, especially on carnations and minis is much tighter in Europe and Africa than the Americas. Color and vase life from various regions also differs — all the more reason not to test out a new supplier when color is critical and you have no time to lose. I’ll never forget jumping at a terrific price for ‘Redlion’, a red tulip I knew my retail customers would love, only to discover when the boxes arrived on Feb. 10, it was far too orange-y to sell at Valentine’s Day. The lesson: If a deal sounds too good to be true — loads of bright red tulips, cheap, in the dead of winter — it likely is.

115

Remove any food and deco mosses, which can be unexpected sources of ethylene. Make room to stack boxes on pallets, about 10 inches away from walls to maximize airflow. Clean out vases that have been gathering dust (a breeding ground for germs). Wash aprons and sparkle clean the coffee maker in preparation for overtime use. Clean out delivery vehicles, too. What about sanitizing trash cans? Two years ago, a grower contacted me with a hydrangea problem, saying the fresh flower balls flopped after a day or two, a problem that sounded suspiciously like ethylene exposure. After turning every stone, we found the culprit: a half-eaten mango at the bottom of a trash can in the processing area. That rotting fruit was producing enough ethylene to poison the hydrangeas. (Remember, it takes less than

1 ppm for ethylene to kill flowers, and death from ethylene happens 24 to 48 hours after exposure.) External sources of ethylene gas at your shop may include auto exhaust (sucked into design area as deliveries are being loaded), dirty heat exchangers on space heaters, fruits in the cooler, rotting green bits under design tables or a driver who smokes in vans.

All Hands on Deck Your best resource at the holidays, and year-round, is a well-trained staff. Team members who know what to do, and why they’re doing it, will save you time and money. Years ago I came upon an employee cutting mini carns one bunch at a time as he processed 25 boxes. When asked why he didn’t unpack 15 bunches and then cut and place all of the flowers in a bucket, he replied that no one had ever shown him that method. That’s a training failure. Communicate best practices. Use technology to provide visuals to your staff. Having trouble getting buckets filled correctly? Whip out your smartphone and take a picture of the perfect fill. Share it with staff. When it comes to matching care products with flowers and plants, you can’t beat a straightforward graph or chart. The visual organizer will keep your staff on track and serve as a reminder on a daily or weekly basis. Post information about dosages in a public space; don’t forget to account for bucket size variations. Finally, just as you review sourcing problems or customer complaints immediately after the holidays, take a moment to reflect (and ask for feedback on) any care and handling issues. That way, you’ll be better prepared when the next big holiday rolls in. Gay Smith is the technical consulting manager at Chrysal Americas in Miami. gaysmith@earthlink.net

IFD Designer Tools Care and Handling

the best quarter and dime you’ll spend See the dramatic difference in flowers treated in a hydration solution (top photo) and then moved to a flower food solution vs. those placed directly in water. Using a commercial solution costs about 35 cents.

Two STepS To Long-LaSTing HydrangeaS > Cold water bath, hot water bath, remove the outer layer of the stem: These are just a few suggestions I’ve heard for making hydrangeas last longer and not droop. The problem is that these are labor intensive, they don’t benefit the other flowers in the arrangement and the outcome is never consistent. So rather than search for home remedies, there are two post-harvest products that will work every time and benefit every flower. Even better, both can be used for less than 35 cents an arrangement.

No More Droopy Blooms Hydrangeas have a potential vase life of more than two weeks, but they are very sensitive to poor care and handling. The beauty of a hydrangea is easily found in its large, round flower (technically called an “inflorescence”), made up of several clusters of individual flowers. These large flowers can easily become dehydrated, however, causing them to quickly wilt and the petals to turn brown.

117

The “trick” is chemistry and it is very repeatable. Most importantly, hydrangea, with its soft and very turgid nature, must be kept hydrated and properly fed. Floralife® Hydraflor® 100 Hydration Postharvest Treatment is a hydration solution that allows flowers to properly hydrate after a period of dry transport. (Other postharvest companies, including Chrysal and Syndicate Sales, also offer hydration solutions; my information is based solely on Floralife’s.) This solution improves the flow of liquids through the flower stems by clearing air and natural compounds blocking stem cell and passageways. Generally, this hydration solution is used by the wholesaler when processing. If you are uncertain if your wholesaler has used a hydration solution, be sure to ask. At the retail level, florists can incorporate a very simple step to extend flower life and make sure hydrangeas get proper hydration. Floralife Quick Dip is an instant hydration and pretreat-

ment solution to use in the shop. Simply remove the foliage that will be below the water level in the container, put a fresh cut on the stem and dip two inches of the stem in Quick Dip. The solution is premixed and can be used until it becomes cloudy and contaminated. Do not pour the solution back in the bottle after use. Finally, make sure flowers are inserted into floral foam that has been soaked in flower food or placed in vases with flower food for a proper pH level to inhibit bent neck and keep stems’ “plumbing” free flowing. These pretreatment solutions are highly effective with all flower types, but when you have a very thirsty flower like the hydrangea, a hydration solution combined with flower food is the best investment in flower life.
