Question

A customer comes into your shop carrying a gorgeous oval bowl. It’s very large and low, and has a pale gray crackled glaze. He tells you it’s a bonsai container that he picked up during a trip to Japan. He asks you to make an arrangement of fresh flowers that will be placed in this bowl. The arrangement will then be displayed in the foyer of his business for a celebration that will take place there next week. The furnishings in the foyer are very modern. The bowl will be placed on a counter, so the arrangement will be visible from both sides. The customer says that the colors in the foyer are black, white, and gray. He wants an artistic arrangement that suits the bowl. After he leaves your shop, you decide that a parallel-systems floral design is just what this container needs. 7. You decide that tulips can be added to this parallel-systems design if you make them appear as if they're an upright column. To keep the tulips from bending as they often do, you tie them with raffia, a technique known as A. banding. B. skeletonizing. C. framing. D. binding.

Answer 1

To keep the tulips from bending as they often do, you tie them with raffia, a technique known as B. skeletonizing

This type of technique helps the flowers be tied together. The raffia is used like a skeleton for the flowers to stand straight. It supports the tulips, preventing them from bending. 

Answer 2

Answer:

A. banding

Explanation:

Banding is a technique used in floriculture to make decorative decorations. This technique is used when the florist wants the arrangement to have an efficient support that prevents very delicate flowers from loosening, falling or doubling due to their anatomy or some external factor.

The technique consists in tying these flowers together with something resistant and that supports the support, like raffia, for example.
