balcony flowers
Balcony flowers are the name given to a large number of low-growth plants, which can unfold optimally in flower boxes or small flowerpots, making them a good choice for all households that do not have a larger garden area. Basically, the term balcony flowers is somewhat misleading because not every plant species is equally suitable for all balconies. Above all, the orientation of the balcony is crucial and provides the framework conditions for the development of all plants, as, for example, a south-facing balcony with many hours of sunshine in the warm season is not tolerated by all plants. Common to all balcony flowers, however, is that they have a spatially very limited root system and also at the surface only a low growth and so in a limited space area such as a balcony can still come to full advantage. Similar to all other plants balcony flowers need the right treatment and care, whereby for this purpose numerous products of well-known manufacturers can be discovered on www.floristik21.de. In addition, of course, a large selection of balcony flowers can be found, which can be on a balcony beyond an attractive adornment along garden paths or in your own four walls.
Balancing is an activity in modern horticulture, which is mainly used in tree nurseries and large suppliers of woody plants of all kinds. For baling special baling cutters are used, which can be stretched as an additional tool in front of a tractor or offered by retailers as an independent vehicle. The aim of the balling is to raise a tree, shrub or other woodland out of the ground, without damaging the root system of the corresponding plant and thereafter stably keeping root and soil together. This step becomes necessary, as the planting and growing of the trees is first done in a nursery, before the sprouts or small plants can be sold to customers after a few months or years. They want to plant the trees and shrubs in the private garden or public parks, the opportunity to plant this plant with their entire root system, so that the wood can introduce directly into the new habitat and beat more roots. When using the bale cutter, it is therefore important to pay close attention to the age of the particular plant and the radius of the root system so as not to damage it accidentally when it is removed from the ground. After that, the actual balling is carried out, in which the root system together with soil in cloths or a close-meshed wire mesh are wrapped. 
Bamboo refers to a sweetgrass variety, which is native to the Asian continent and can be used in many ways. While the bamboo with its green leaves in its native climes is primarily used as food, in this country bamboo tubes are to be found as decorative elements in public space as well as in professional floristry. Small varieties of bamboo that have been harvested early turn into a special ornament in bouquets or flower bowls, with the robust and weather-resistant nature of the bamboo making it an ideal complement to flowers and other fresh produce. In its mature form, which reaches one meter or even more in size, the bamboo can be used to decorate the home garden or to demarcate land. Even as a building material bamboo is now very much appreciated and is used as a particularly ecological substance in numerous projects of classic house construction. In addition to its use in floristry, the bamboo can also be used as a fuel in the home fireplace, so that after blooming of a bouquet or a planter, this natural raw material can still be used sensibly.

In general, the process of mulching refers to the covering of soil surfaces in order to hinder the growth of weeds of all kinds in addition to aesthetic enrichment. The mulch is a natural, uncrushed material that is obtained in the case of bark mulch from the barks of indigenous trees. Due to the diversity of this plant species in Germany, a large number of shades of bark mulch can be found, which knows how to fill the entire color palette, from cream to deep brown.

The term basic form in floristry refers to the shape of flowers and plants of all kinds, which plays an essential role in the individual composition of bouquets, wreaths or arrangements and incorporates basic criteria of aesthetics. Basically, modern floristry distinguishes between three basic forms: the rectangular shape, the triangular shape and the circle. In this case, not only do plants take on one of these basic forms due to their external shape and their symmetrical growth, which are complemented to one another in a targeted manner or summarized as a counterpoint in containers and bunches of all kinds. The choice of the right planter or the arrangement of flowerbeds and fields also plays a decisive role in the basic shape, which, depending on the species, has an aesthetically different effect and can thus express artistic preferences. Which basic form is to be chosen individually depends on the spatial possibilities that you would like to provide flowers and other plants in a garden or your own home. Other cultures create other basic forms in their design, for example, the Japanese Ikebana oriented less to the basic geometrical shapes of Europe and expresses by a particular arrangement of the plants also symbolic values of human life. 
Bast refers scientifically to a component of trees and other plants, the outer shape of which is lignified or wood-like. About the bast takes place the transport of nutrients in all parts of the plant. Throughout its trunk, the plant is therefore covered with bast, which can be found as an inner layer below the bark. In addition to the wood of numerous tree species, Bast is also used industrially and processed by its soft and flexible shape to a durable fabric. This can be bought not only in the form of mats in stores, which serve as a support or support surface, but also in the form of strings, which are occasionally used in the field of floristics. Compared to plastic tapes and packaging materials, raffia cords are a very eco-friendly alternative, which is why it is often used in the packaging of bouquets and other plants. However, compared to plastic tapes, Bast is less flexible so that the fabric can break apart quickly – careful handling of bast is therefore advisable in any case. 
The term bedding plants in modern floristry refers to all plants that, due to their shape, find an optimal use in their home garden and here explicitly in classic flowerbeds. The selection of bedding plants in this country is quite large and makes it possible to specifically complement bare and free off-road areas with a colorful selection of flowers. With preference are chosen as bedding plants such that bloom over many months and have a rather bushy or shrubby character, with the help of which only a few plants a larger area can be covered. Anyone who places an emphasis on this aesthetic aspect is well advised to use rose plants and perennials as bedding plants, but herbs or bulbous plants can also be deliberately created in the form of a bed and thus cultivated in a spatially clearly defined area. Many gardening enthusiasts also decide to delineate applied beds in a natural way, choosing, for example, the boxwood or other non-bloomers as the natural form of bedding design. From the designation bedding plant no indications about the care and rearing of the respective plants can be taken, since every plant cultivable in the bed brings its own demands on water, sun and nutrients and thus needs an individually adjusted supply. 
The intercrossing is one of the most important tasks of all florists as well as private flower growers, this activity has both a practical and aesthetic background. For cutting, scissors of various sizes and ability are used, are known especially the small and compact scissors to remove individual leaves or withered flowers, as well as the branch or pruning shears to remove larger components of a shrub or tree. By hiding at regular intervals a plant should be helped to develop naturally and to grow in a targeted manner. Although it is also possible for a flower or plant to develop excellently, as in the wild, without additional intercrossing, such wild growth can also be a burden on the particular plant. With uncontrolled growth, there is a possibility that the plant can no longer ensure adequate supply of nutrients for all parts of the plant and thus under the excessive burden. By contrast, selective planting of foliage and branches gives the plant the opportunity to develop in a smaller space in a targeted manner and to grow stronger. Of course, it is also possible for purely aesthetic reasons to bring bushes and other plants into shape by means of cutting in order to bring about a perfect preparation of beds and larger garden areas. 
The name bellflowers sums up a large number of flowers around the globe, which share the striking flower form. This is similar to a cast bell, so spreads from the flower stem strongly and also tends in most species of this genus down, making the visual impression of a bell shape is perfect. In order for the bell of a bellflower to continue to be easily accessible to insects and thus does not stand in the way of simple pollination of the flower, many pollen pistils stand out far beyond this, and most species have a wide open body of their bell-shaped flowers. Even though bluebells can be found around the globe, a large part of these plants with their striking flower form is located in mountain regions. A biological or genetic relationship of all bellflowers is not present, so that the shape of the flower is only a criterion that summarizes botanically partially completely different plants under the name bellflowers. 
The Biedermeier bouquet is a special variant of a bouquet of flowers, which is characterized by charming decorations and a rather small shape.

The term flower describes both a specific part of flowers and other plants as well as a period in which this part of the plant unfolds and presents itself in all its glory. The flowering of all flowers and many other plants represents the conclusion of the individual stems or branches and serves primarily the reproduction of the respective plant. In the interior of a flower is the so-called stamp on many flowers, which has the pollen and thus the genetic material of the corresponding plant. For propagation, the flower relies on insects to penetrate the interior of the flower and take some of the pollen with it when refueling the nectar. Other flowers and plant species have evolved more sophisticated reproductive mechanisms and separate, for example, after flowering from their withered petals, which sometimes take on a completely different shape and are then carried away by the wind or simply fall to the ground. All flowers, which rely on the help of insects in their multiplication, try to lure them with a colorful play of colors of the individual flowers, which in the eyes of many people contributes to the aesthetic appearance of the individual flower species. In the case of different plants, the basic form of the individual flowers can be recognized and regarded as aesthetic even if the actual flower has not yet taken place. Conversely, numerous plants develop a flower, even if it is rather inconspicuous and irrelevant in the field of floristry.

The bonsai is a special type of woodland crop, native to Japan and other Far Eastern countries, and can now be found in millions of European households. While the plant itself is named bonsai in this country, the term actually refers to the entire art of this breed. The special feature of bonsai lies in the fact that the plants are grown in deliberately small vessels and pots, whereby the trees maintain a very compact shape and look like miniature trees. Although some of the special species of trees of the Asian habitat are to be found in the art of bonsai, European woody plants such as maples or pines are also suitable for miniature rearing. The cultivation and care of the bonsai is a true art of Asian horticulture, which is not related solely to the symbolic meaning of the bonsai in this living environment. Rather, it is botanically very demanding to limit the growth of trees and other woody plants targeted and yet ensure that the corresponding plant grows and thrives. The regular cutting of branches and leaves is also part of the regular duties of a bonsai lover, such as the use of special bonsai and other fertilizers. Depending on the chosen type of wood, each bonsai tree also has its own requirements for optimal care.
