How do you water Floral Foam correctly?
You should use a sufficiently large container filled with fresh, clean water to water Floral Foam.
It is important that the cuttings are placed on the water and can soak up like a sponge without any external influence (e.g. by pressing down). This happens within 90 seconds.
Avoid turning the cuttings over at all costs in order to water them from all sides. If the Floral Foam is turned over or pressed under water, the outer cells are sealed with water and the air can no longer escape from the inner cells. A dry core remains inside the Floral Foam, which does not supply the flowers with water later, but actually draws it out of them, causing them to wilt extremely quickly.
If, on the other hand, the fresh flower foam fills up ‘on its own’, the air can escape upwards completely. The water can distribute itself evenly in the foam and no dry patches form. This means that every flower in the arrangement is reliably supplied with water.
The flowers will stay fresh for a particularly long time if you add FloraLife® flower food to the water.
Please do not leave your fresh flower foam in the water for a long period of time to prevent bacteria from forming.
Watering large Floral Foam products
The conventional watering method is rarely used for large Floral Foam products. A mortar mixing tray (available from DIY stores) is best suited for watering such large products. It should be cleaned with FloraLife® Cleaner and the water level in the container should be as high as possible. If it is not possible to lay the product with the foam side completely flat on the water, water it by holding it vertically and slowly immersing it deep into the tub (with the heart first) until the lower half of the product has soaked up the water. Then turn the product over to soak the upper half in the same way.
A long balcony box is the ideal watering container for watering large rings or wreaths. Water the ring or wreath by placing it upright in the balcony box. As soon as the part of the product standing in the water has soaked up water, turn the ring/wreath to water the next part. Continue until the ring/wreath is completely watered.
Watering large Floral Foam products?
If you want to use a ready-made Floral Foam product (e.g. a Heart Floral Foam), all you need to do is water the Floral Foam as described above and decorate it with cut flowers as desired.
It is important to cut the flower stems diagonally with a sharp knife - ideally at an angle of 45° - so that the flowers can be placed deep in the Floral Foam in rows and hold well. The blade of the knife or scissors should be sharp and clean. This prevents the stems and Floral Foam from being crushed and ensures an optimum water supply.
With a straight cut surface, on the other hand, the Floral Foam is compressed and therefore unstable. It can no longer hold the flowers in place and water absorption is not ideal.
If you are working individually with bricks or slabs of Floral Foam and want to shape them into the desired form, you should do this in a dry state before watering. You can easily cut the mass with our foam cutter. You can then water the foam, place it in a container (such as bowls, glasses or vases) and decorate it with fresh flowers as described.
How long do flowers stay fresh with Floral Foam?
How long cut flowers stay fresh in floral arrangements with Floral Foam depends on many different factors:
- Freshness of the flowers themselves
- Processing temperature
- The hygiene applied during cutting (e.g. clean cutting tools, cleaning of containers and work surfaces)
- Care of the flowers during storage
- Addition of flower nutrients in the finished arrangement (e.g. FloraLife® Flower Care for Home)
- Location of the flower arrangement
Under optimal conditions, the flowers can stay fresh for around 14 days.
When using Floral Foam, please ensure that you do not reuse foam that has already been used.
After a few days, the bacteria present in the flower stems will have multiplied to such an extent that the freshness of flowers is reduced by around 50%! The water retention capacity of foam that has already been used is also reduced, which means that water leakage cannot be prevented.
