(Asparagus Plumusus)

• If you are "pre-greening" floral foam prior to a holiday, spray ferns with commercial antitranspirant or a leaf gloss product to cover fronds with a protective coat and help minimize water loss. Follow directions. Note that spraying too close with an aerosol can cause "freeze" damage to the fronds
• Use in hand-tied bouquets and arrangements to add fullness, color and texture to design and to cover any foam, tape, etc.
• Make sure stems are long enough to reach the water reservoir when using floral foam. Ferns do need to drink!
• Set up an area for customers to pick out their own stems for bouquets and provide conditioned greens in small bunches to enhance their selections.
