magnetic disc
As a magnetic plate in floristics a flat, magnetic plate or foil referred to, which can be easily attached to vehicles or other objects and here to ensure a stable hold of flowers and containers. Especially for wedding and similar, festive events, it has been common for decades to decorate motor vehicles with flowers, but the attachment of this natural jewelry is a great challenge dar. In principle, the attachment of ostriches and similar decorative elements on ropes is possible over the entire However, this method is perceived by many people as unaesthetic. With a magnetic plate, the magnetic effect of the body is exploited, the floral decoration is accordingly prepared so that it remains safe even while driving the car on the hood or roof of the vehicle. The use of a magnetic disk and the attachment of the floral decoration with just such is appreciated not only because of the uncomplicated installation, but also the paint of the vehicle is not attacked. Once the ceremony is over, the magnetic plate can be removed without leaving any residue, and even the flower decoration still has its original, handsome shape at this time. Less established, but also to see as an alternative to working with a magnetic plate is the attachment of flower arrangements using suction cups.
As care claim, the conditions are described, which play a role in the rearing and preservation of plants for optimal development. While flowers and plants in nature are left to their own devices and thrive only where climate, temperature, soil and other environmental factors are optimal, flower lovers in the private sector would like to artificially bring about precisely these factors. All plant species differ in their claims, and these differences are qualitatively and quantitatively. Different plant species are in fact dependent on no separate care and are already developing under the most elementary basic conditions in nutrient supply, water and light, as many garden friends are well aware of the development of weeds in their gardens. Other plant species, such as orchids, carnivores or roses, on the other hand, have a higher level of care, which makes it necessary, for example, to use expanded clay and other granules instead of classical potting soil. The duration and intensity of the sun's rays as well as the administration of irrigation water with or without additional liquid fertilizers also play an important role in the optimum care of a plant and must be adapted to the respective care requirements. In the specialist literature as well as through the consultation with the florist or gardener, plant friends can quickly find out which nursing claim individual plants make and whether it is possible to fulfill the requirements permanently in their own garden or on the window sill. 
The term "maritime" literally means "belonging to the sea" and thus describes all the components between the economy, nature and everyday life related to such a large body of water. With reference to the flora and fauna, all living things are referred to as maritime, which have their roots in these regions of the world and are therefore reliant on appropriate conditions for breeding and care. Traditionally, it is difficult to breed in Central Europe plants that have maritime origins, as they can not cope with the too dry and often too cold air of the Central European habitat. Plants from the marine environment are often unable to store moisture over a long period of time because the natural environment ensures a sufficient supply of water at all times. In addition, maritime plants do not rely solely on an adequate supply of irrigation water, but absorb a large part of their moisture through the air. Should florists or private buyers of maritime plants have an interest in successfully growing these plants, then in addition to the sufficient temperatures, a regular spraying of the plants with atomized water and various nutrients is necessary to optimally imitate the local climate. Well-known, maritime plants are various fruit trees and olive trees, various tang species and the Chlorella. 
The term material science refers to a discipline of many scientific disciplines, but is also found in floristry and an essential part of vocational training. In material science, natural and synthetic materials of all kinds are treated, which originate from an industrial production or processing and are thus offered for sale in various areas of life, eg also in floristry. Above all, materials for flower arrangements, wreaths, decoration materials or flowerpots and planters are treated within the framework of materials science, whereby it is made clear for each case which areas of application the different materials are particularly well suited for. For example, those who are involved in the design of outdoor areas such as gardens and terraces will, as a professional service provider, want to rely on materials for planters or decorative objects that are suitable for any weather and present an appealing look for years to come. Also, the reaction of various materials in contact with water, nutrient-rich soil, and the like. is discussed in the training as a florist or gardener and makes it clear for which areas of application to offer different materials. Ultimately, the aesthetic component also plays a role in materials science; in concrete terms, working with glass, cork, and similar materials can, for example, target different effects when it comes to the decorative design of arrangements or wreaths. 
The term medicinal plants summarizes all whose components can be used to alleviate or cure health problems. Above all, various herbs have been promised a curative effect, which has now been found to be an alternative to the treatment with classic drugs, but also provide ingredients of flowers, trees and other plants, depending on the nature of a healing effect. Depending on the plant may be used for the desired effect, eg the roots, the petals or the plant as a whole. Compared with modern medicine, the doctrine of medicinal plants goes back many centuries, even in ancient times, medicinal herbs were taken to relieve various diseases or physical pain or rubbed as a tincture or juice on wounds. The knowledge that exists today about medicinal plants has emerged from these centuries-old traditions and has been determined in earlier generations, especially by self-experimentation. An essential role in Europe is attributed above all to the monasteries, in which monks and now have been concerned concerned with the cultivation of flowers and other plants and examined them for their effect as medicinal herbs. Although many modern-day medicines can deliver faster or better results, the use of medicinal herbs remains effective. 
The term Mediterranean refers to all elements of daily life that are related to the Mediterranean or the inhabited Mediterranean region. The term is well established in the field of nautical and business, but has left its mark on artistic creation for centuries and can be traced from antiquity to the 21st century. Vases, amphorae and similar products made of clay and natural materials, which were developed eg in ancient Rome or Ancient Greece and rediscovered during the Renaissance, are understood as Mediterranean elements in art. Even today, modern flower vases and planters in their appearance are based on the Mediterranean origins of these objects and deliberately presents antique-style decors and imprints. In addition to planters and flowers and plants are considered Mediterranean, as long as they have their botanical origins in the Mediterranean. Their breeding in central Europe is in most cases not possible, but modern hybrids have developed many hybrids that can better cope with climatic conditions in Germany. Basically, a Mediterranean plant such as orange or olive tree needs a warm to hot climate, also should constantly be given a high humidity as near the sea. The breeding of real, Mediterranean plants is thus easier in enclosed spaces than in the free, German nature. 
Commemorative floristry refers to a particular area of today's floristry, which deals with the creation of flower arrangements for funeral services, funerals and condolence receptions. For many centuries, it has not been customary in Germany to bury it in a festive manner in the death of a human being and to bring in a vivid component into the sad event through a subtly colored floral decoration. From this tradition, certain elements of commemorative floristry have become established, which are used for the decoration of coffins and tombs as well as for the design of rooms. In this country, especially arrangements and wreaths are established as jewelry for the fresh tomb, in which not only flowering plants but shrubs and other, color-covered decorative elements are included. It is thus customary to weave or put fringes and ribbons into a funeral wreath, with which the deceased can be given a last message on the way to the realm of the dead. Different flowers and colors play an important role in the funeral floristry, for example white lilies or carnations. At the request of the mourning community or the direct survivors, one can also decide against the tradition in the design of graves and mourning rooms and wish for a rather colorful floral decoration. In this case, it is the challenge in the funeral floristry to continue to design elements of the floral design. 
Millefiori is a special artisan technique that is used almost exclusively in the manufacture of glass. In German often referred to as thread glass, Millefiori refers to the incorporation of white or other colored elements in clear glass, whereby patterns and designs are produced. Technically, thread glass can be produced in that the already heated glass mass is deformed according to the ideas of the artisan and this differently colored glass fibers are incorporated into the glass mass. Afterwards, the glassblower has the possibility to make certain deformations of the glass by the manual intervention afterwards and to provide this eg with regular patterns. The technique of millefiori was already known in antiquity and was even then used for aesthetic purposes, for example, to make glass vases or drinking vessels visually even more beautiful. Over the centuries, different variants of the millefiori have emerged in the different art epochs, even after the Second World War, the artistic design was further reinforced in Italy. Since glasses and vases made of millefiori are real crafts, these decorative elements continue to be of particular value and are more festive than everyday use. In addition to this real millefiori, there are also industrially produced mass-produced, which has taken over only the designs of the original Millefiori. 
Mimosa is an independent genus in botany, one of the legumes and has its roots in the tropical regions of the world. Real mimosa are therefore rare in the European environment and botanically not to equate acacia, which are commonly referred to in everyday language as mimosa. The mimosa is a so-called subshrub, the most notable of which are their sequences of movements, with which the plant opens and closes its numerous leaves along a branch, specifically for the needs of sunlight or nutrients. Also on touch stimuli from outside the plant reacts in this way. Mimosa thus take over a significant part of the control of their intake of sunlight and the contact with rainwater and pests themselves and thus biologically represent a real peculiarity in the plant kingdom. Real mimosa grow today in many countries in South America, over the centuries, the mimosa also has the European mainland and is found exclusively in the southern European, Mediterranean countries. Along its thin branches and branches the mimosa also forms flowers in white or slightly violet color. The striking movement behavior of the plant, which causes an immediate retreat of the leaves in the smallest external stimuli, has also led to the proverbial importance of mimosa for a shy person. 
The mistletoe is a component of the sandalwood plant mistletoe, which is to be assigned in its origins to the tropical habitat. Over the past few centuries, the botanical establishment of numerous species of mistletoe has also taken place in European and North American countries, so that, for example, in France or England mistletoe can be discovered and mistletoe branches separated. With its eye-catching, red berries, which serve to increase the plant, mistletoe branches are among the most popular plants in floristry and in the general decoration sector, with a branch having a fresh and handsome shape for weeks after being separated from its tree. The mistletoe is not only a natural ornament, but has in mythology and society today several symbolic meanings. For example, the Germanic legend was wounded Odin's son Balder with a mistletoe, which could otherwise be injured by any other, earthly element. Even more popular in the 21st century is the American name Mistletow, with individual mistletoe branches hanging over the doorframe in apartments at Christmas time. If more or less by chance two people are under the mistletoe, tradition requires that both kiss. In Germany mistletoe branches are also known by their name as witches' broom, witch's wort or Druid's foot because of their distinctive shape. 
Moiré is the trade name for various textiles that have a distinctive, optical structure. What is wrong is that moiré is a particular material, since moiré patterns can be found both in velvet and silk as well as in viscose or industrially manufactured synthetic fibers. In German, the striking patterning of a fabric with moiré is referred to as a grain, which is based on the natural grain of wood in appearance. The optics is not permanent, but changes depending on the movement of the tissue and its more or less smooth display. For the production of moiré, it is necessary to superimpose two layers of the same fabric and press them together, as is done industrially today by rollers specially designed for this purpose. Even with fabrics that originate from the same industrial production, the look is never 100% identical, so that the optically iridescent effect is created by minimal deviations in the tissue. For a few decades, another, cheaper way of moiré production has been established, this simply an already predetermined pattern is pressed onto a single-layer fabric. In addition to fabric can also produce paper with moiré effects, this artful paper is used with its eye-catching shape in floristry as in the craft area. 
In addition to the theory of colors, the theory of forms is one of the most important disciplines of floristry when it comes to the field of aesthetic design of bouquets, flower arrangements and other goods of flower-binding art. Although the color theory is usually attributed to a high quality, the design of bouquets, wreaths and other floristic elements is just as important to create high-quality and aesthetic products of floral tying allow. In German floristry, the formal theory often follows traditional guidelines, while floristic elements such as wreaths or bouquets follow a more classical form that has been established for generations. In other cultures, as the Japanese Ikebana, the doctrine of forms is placed before the color theory, the alignment of all the individual elements in a collection of flowers and plants is always a symbolic meaning. 
A mosaic refers to a particular design or painting technique in which the overall picture is made by putting together many small individual elements. The technique of the mosaic has been known since ancient times and is mainly used in interior design or landscaping, where the creation of artworks on ornamental stones takes place. For the design of a mosaic, the artist first decides on a particular motif, this is roughly sketched with chalk or similar auxiliary materials. Afterwards the artist selects small stones on the basis of color criteria and places them piece by piece in the individual areas of the picture. In ancient times, adhesives between the individual stones were mostly dispensed with, which were given a high degree of stability solely because of their tight and dense arrangement. The additional work with adhesive substances became common especially from the early Middle Ages, where the insertion of mosaics in walls and ceilings of church buildings or castles became common. Even today, many people appreciate the striking look of a mosaic, stones for the hand-crafting of artistic images are industrially manufactured and sold by the specialized trade. Even in public space mosaics are still used today, the creation of these works of art continues to fulfill a purely aesthetic purpose. 
The term moss summarizes a variety of green plants, which is native to Germany as well as around the globe and thrives to a large extent in dark and humid forest areas. Mosses have no supportive tissue compared to trees or other green plants and are therefore rather short in length, also change in the development of new mosses mature and asexual plant parts in the development and thus ensure a continuous cycle of propagation. In general, mosses show very low growth, and they have very little and slow water regulation. Conversely, mosses in the targeted breeding rather easy to care for and thrive, provided that the various characteristics of sexual and vegetative reproduction are observed. Also in floristry, mosses play an essential role and are used for example in planters. In most cases, mosses are supposed to cover a less aesthetic root system here and also give reasons for larger areas. Depending on the moss type, even stones can be the optimal substrate for the propagation of mosses, so that in the floristic design is not necessarily pay attention to a high-quality ground. In their botanical development, mosses can be considered as the oldest plant species in the world, which in this country are remnants of the algae from earlier millions of years. 
Trauerband belongs to the design resources in the Trauerfloristik and is used in the design of bouquets and arrangements for the organization of the funeral service or a tomb. Mourning ribbon is a light, often in black or other, dark shades held decorative ribbon with a loose fabric structure, which can be placed for example in the form of loops around a bouquet. Mourning ribbon is not to be confused with wreath ribbon or funeral ribbons, which is significantly larger and more robust and also makes it possible to print personal mourning messages in a loop printing shop. Mourning tape is offered by the retailer as meter goods on wheels and can be used by this arbitrarily long character for further design purposes around a funeral, for example, for the easy moving of the casket or urn or in the design of tables in a condolence reception. The mourning ribbon offered by specialist retailers is not consistently black, but offers subtle patterns that are supposed to lessen the aesthetic appearance of the ribbon and the objects decorated with it. The incorporation of small, floral motifs or thinner cords is possible and gives even greater freedom in the design of the funeral. Mourning ribbon will be purchased at the florist as well as wreath ribbon or an individual grief ribbon at the florist, and the low-cost purchase over the Internet is now easily possible. 
Mühlenbeckia is the technical term for the so-called wire bushes, which characterize as Knöterichgewächse a substantial part of botany on the continents of South America and Oceania. The shrubs are summer green and have, as the German name of the genus already suggests, numerous, thin and wiry-looking branches and branches. Compared to European shrubs, mill Beckia have a very narrow network of branches, which is why they are used with preference to the limitation of land or parking areas. Here, the genus of plants in summer presents almost completely opaque and also convinces by a bright green color and the formation of numerous flowers. Its name derives from the botanist Gustav Mühlenbeck, who came from the area of present-day Alsace and at the beginning of the 19th century for the first time named this genus on his world travels. Even today, due to the climatic conditions, the Mühlenbeckia is rarely found in the European environment, in principle, however, a breeding of different species is also possible under our climatic conditions. In gardening and landscaping, the Mühlenbeckia is due to its angular shape, especially in rock gardens a decorative use, even over large areas can be set up the rather undemanding plant effortlessly.
