The most popular flower material in flower arrangement is not fresh flowers, but artificial flowers
Artistic flower arrangement is an excellent traditional culture. It uses the beauty of nature to convey emotions, express feelings with flowers, make friends with flowers, and beautify and decorate homes. It has become a new fashion in modern society.
Special flower arrangement art
There are three common flower materials used in flower arrangement: fresh flowers (also known as real flowers), dried flowers (also known as everlasting flowers), and artificial flowers (also known as fake flowers or simulated flowers). Why is artificial and simulated flowers the most popular flower material in flower arrangement? Let's find out.
High degree of simulation and rich artistic conception
1. Most types of flowers need suitable soil and water to survive better. Therefore, although they are also used in flower arrangement art, flower arrangement requires cutting of various parts of the flower branches and leaves. After cutting, the flowers are seriously damaged. For example, the roots, branches and leaves are cut off. Even if they are replanted, it is difficult for them to survive. Therefore, the bright flowers used in flower arrangement have a very short survival time and will wither soon. This is why they are rarely used in flower arrangement.
A variety of flowers and plants
2. Dried flowers are mainly made of naturally dried flowers or processed dried plants. They can be dyed and combined at will. They can be stored much longer than fresh flowers. However, dried flowers are very afraid of sunlight and moisture. Generally, they will lose their luster in about a year. If they are not stored well, they are prone to mold and darkening. Therefore, they are rarely used in flower arrangement, but many people still like them in some simple bouquets.
3. Artificial flowers are also called simulated flowers or fake flowers. The materials of simulated flowers are divided into many kinds, such as silk, cotton, silk, flannel, PU, plastic, polyester, etc. The simulation degree is high and the preservation time is very long. It is like a piece of high-quality cloth or PU leather. Under normal placement, it can be placed for several years at least, and for hundreds of years at most. It is easy to clean and not easy to get dirty. It is very beautiful to use in the art of flower arrangement, and it is the most used flower material in flower arrangement. Flower arrangement is now very popular in home decoration, store decoration, park decoration, etc.
