This post provides tips for using floral foam to create wild floral arrangements, keeping flowers fresh for longer. Wet floral foam is recommended for arrangements with live flowers, as it can absorb up to 10 times its weight. Carefully insert flowers into the foam, ensuring they fully connect inside the foam. Use wet floral foam, floral frog, or tape to anchor flowers in place. To make the arrangement more unique, add organic elements like berries, pine cones, or succulents.
Cultival arranging is a real art that requires time, patience, and understanding of balance and nature. This article explains how to arrange flowers using floral foam, showing step-by-step instructions on creating wintry tulip centerpieces. Floral foam provides stability and support to flower stems, ensuring they remain in place and don’t droop or shift within the arrangement. Tulips perform better in a vase than in foam, but it’s important not to move the stems from their original inserted position. Leaf yellowing can be a problem in foam, and soft stems are prone to stem burn.
To create a stable base for your tulips, soak the foam in water for 30 minutes before using it. Place the foam in the vase and secure it. Cut the foam to fit inside a bowl and let it soak for several minutes until the block of foam forms.
Floral foam works best with flowers with tougher stems, as some soft stems, like anemones, can be damaged when placed in foam. DIY flower arrangements can be created with these easy shortcuts and tips, without the need for floral foam.

Watching your articles, I am appreciating the different flowers that you use in the arrangements. I have been afraid to cut some of those flowers because I thought they are fragile like the freezia for example or the phlox. But you are so confident the way you cut them. The arrangement always turns out so beautiful. Thank you for making this article.
