By Winifred Christensen


There are several ornamental plants that are suitable for flower arrangement. Plants have different qualities, and while some are popular for their unique flowers, others have variegated leaves that are equally beautiful. People who want to keep the plants fresh for weeks must take the necessary precautions, during and after cutting. For those who are interested in flower delivery New Orleans experts create stunning bouquets with exotic varieties.

Experienced florists understand how plants combine with each other, and with such knowledge, it is possible to come up with interesting palettes. Flower arrangement is an art, and so, reputable florists can combine the common plants in a creative way, to come up with spectacular bouquets. It is important to remove as many leaves as possible, so that the stalks can retain water.

It would be easier to buy cut flowers, if the most expensive bouquets had all the qualities you need. While the daisies are more superior to philodendrons during air purification, they are relatively cheap. Tulips are cheaper than irises, although they have more colorful petals.

By replacing the water often, and adding a little sugar in the vase, you will keep the stalks green for a very long time.

Keep the plants away from ripening fruits. Fruits release ethylene, a chemical that kills blooming flowers prematurely.

Although the philodendron is quite hardy, the large tropical leaves can lose a lot of water once you cut them.
