Progress: 0 of 5 items0%

Instructions

Start with a long focal stem (olive or fern) as your center line, then layer in longer greenery to create cascading flow.

Build fullness upward—add ferns and eucalyptus around the center, varying stem lengths to create texture and volume.

Tuck in focal blooms close to the top third, spacing them asymmetrically for an organic, editorial look.

Wrap stems tightly with tape, secure wire, then wrap with ribbon—allowing stems to trail freely below ribbon knot.

Helpful Tips

Mist hourly, especially with olive branches—water-hydrated foliage stays fresh up to 8 hrs.

Choose foliage in contrasting greens—silky eucalyptus, textured olive, feathery ferns—for visual depth.

Scale the cascade so it hits mid-thigh for drama without obstructing movement.
