aesthetics
The term aesthetics in its original sense refers to a philosophical discipline that deals with the perception of the environment by humans, in everyday language, however, the word is used for the perception of beauty and harmony. The aim of aesthetics is to find out what is objectively perceived as beautiful by observing human perception and to derive therefrom subjective criteria for the beauty of people or objects. Aesthetics is also a leading concept in design and visual arts, with many artists consciously breaking through the principles of known aesthetics, thus creating their own forms of beauty or deliberate ugliness. Basically, it is not possible to describe a form or color as aesthetic, even the delimitation of objects with each other as more or less aesthetically succeeds only with difficulty and is always subject to a subjective perception. However, a larger number of people perceive humans, plants or artificial objects as aesthetic if they have harmonies and symmetries in the design. On this basis, natural aesthetics has a special role to play, as flowers and many other plants are based in their development on principles such as self-similarity and thus leave an aesthetic impression on many people.
The term ambience is to be assigned to the aesthetics and is often used synonymously with the word atmosphere in German. Originally, the term comes from the French and means initially as much as environment. However, if the term is used in the German-speaking environment, it is more likely to have a positive connotation. The ambiance of a room or a landscape is not a fixed term here. Often the atmosphere is perceived quite subjectively and evaluated internally as pleasant or disturbing. Independently of this, an attempt is made to create an objective representation of the ambient and to promote it through various aesthetic objects and facilities. Flowers and plants of all kinds contribute to a change in the ambience especially in living rooms and are perceived by many people as pleasant and aesthetic. A key factor here is the naturalness of bringing bouquets or potted plants into their own four walls, creating a counterpoint to the purely human and urban environment. The term natural aesthetics is established in science and deals with the feeling of beauty and well-being, when natural elements occupy the modern living space of humans for themselves.

An anniversary is a solemn event that is held due to the repetition of a specific date. At an anniversary, either a specific person is honored or an event commemorated that is of particular importance to the family, a city or even the whole world. The most important anniversaries, which are held within the family framework, include the birthday and the wedding day. The so-called round anniversaries, which are celebrated on the 25th, 50th or 75th anniversary of the corresponding date, play a special role here. Anniversaries held in the social environment are, for example, celebrations for the founding of a city or the national holiday, and the commemoration of special achievements in politics, business or science are among the events for which an anniversary is celebrated. In the private sphere, it has become established to present a bouquet of flowers or other floristic jewelry to the person celebrating; in the public sphere, bouquets or wreaths are placed on monuments and other monuments. For round anniversaries, the specialist trade offers special inserts for flowers and planting bowls, which are dyed in gold or silver and want to give the event an even more elegant note and are to honor the jubilees in particular. Plugs of this type can be purchased inexpensively in the diverse online offer from floristik21.de. 
The term Art Nouveau refers to a flow of art that can be settled at the end of the 19th century or beginning of the 20th century and has its roots in Central and Northern Europe. The term designation goes back to the German cultural magazine youth, the name was, however, awarded only retroactively to this artistic trend. Even if the term suggests that it is a certain style with unambiguous criteria, the term Art Nouveau rather summarizes a variety of artistic developments that took place in Europe at the same time. Regardless of this, you can discover some of the features that are considered characteristic of Art Nouveau today. These include lush and curved ornaments, which had found their way into contemporary design in architecture as well as in the design of everyday objects. The use of floral elements for the decoration of houses, vases or garments are typical of the Art Nouveau style and are still taken over by the modern floristry in the design of decorative objects. Floral motifs, which give furniture a special ornament or are printed on cups and plates, thus always have their roots in Art Nouveau style of the last century. In historic buildings, the original Art Nouveau style can still be admired today, focusing on the South German region, the Halle-Leipzig region and Berlin. 
Axonometry describes a method of representing spatial objects, simulating their three-dimensional representation in a two-dimensional environment. Axonometry has traditionally been used as a tool of scientific disciplines such as mathematics, but also has its uses in the artistic and performing environment, helping to view the aesthetics and form of objects even before they are actually made. In order to create an axonometric representation manually, a coordinate system with three axes is to be drawn on a two-dimensional medium such as a sheet of paper, for the optimal, optical insight here a diagonal representation is selected. According to the rules of spatial drawing, three-dimensional objects are drawn into the system true to scale, thus becoming a drawn model of the desired overall object. In modern working environments, computer programs take on these tasks, for example through CAD (Computer Aided Design) in engineering and mechanical engineering. In the case of axonometry, computer technology offers the advantage of being able to rotate the created object in all directions and to rotate it in order to gain an even more vivid impression of the model. Although axonometry is less frequently used to create bouquets and wreaths in floristry, decorative objects for the garden, balcony and terrace are often designed on the basis of this geometric model and made for improvements on the computer. 
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. 
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. 
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 term flower messenger refers to the employee of a flower shop or a professional florist who handles the delivery of bouquets and other plants. Already decades ago, the flower messenger was a firmly established institution, which presented flowers on behalf of another person, for example, for invitations or as a declaration of love. Not infrequently, this spectacle was accompanied by the presentation of a poem or even a piece of music, so that the flower messenger usually had to bring artistic skills. In the 21st century, the requirement profile for a flower messenger is not so great anymore, but its function is still essential today. The modern living environment is characterized by large distances between friends and relatives, so that it is not always possible to appear on special events on site and to present a bouquet of flowers and greetings in person. In this case, the flower messenger is used by modern service providers, who will take care of these tasks, allowing a flower salutation even when the giver is sitting hundreds or thousands of miles away. 
The term bouquet refers to a collection of flowers in the context of a container. The term is used in German-speaking countries mostly synonymous with the flower bouquet. Originally derived from French, the term Bouquet not only indicates an arbitrary combination of flowers, but rather a color, optical and olfactory harmony in the foreground. This is also evident in the use of the term bouquet in the context of wine, where the word describes a positive overall impression that can be obtained with all senses while enjoying the alcoholic beverage. This should also be possible with a bouquet of flowers, which is why professional florists in the context of their training deal with which flowers and other plants harmonize optimally with each other and so can find space in a bouquet. Size and type of flowers play a role as well as the same, botanical needs of the plants, eg the number of hours of sunshine per day or the frequency of casting. Laymen in the field of floristry combine with a harmonious bouquet especially a color-perfect composition of the bouquet. In contrast to this, a bouquet is usually understood to mean a small and compact container which, in addition to classic cut flowers, can also comprise extensive accessories. When putting together bouquets, the occasion, for which this container is created, ultimately also plays a role; a bouquet that is too colorful as a bouquet for a memorial service will not meet the taste of a potential buyer, even with a perfect and harmonious combination of flowers and accessories. 
Inserts belong to the tools of modern floristry and are used by all garden friends who want to present flowers and other plants in larger planters. The choice of planters is preferred mainly because of their easy mobility and flexibility in positioning, but filling a large planter with soil gives it a high weight again. In this case, inserts are the right choice, which take up part of the area of the flower pot and are used only for planting. As a result, the respective plant is not deprived of its required habitat, however, the entire tub does not have to be filled with soil, which reduces the weight of the tubs and also enables savings in potting soil. For use, the surrounding planter can thus be viewed as a planter, although this designation is usually only used for smaller flower pots. If the use of inserts is individually considered, care should be taken to ensure that they are securely and securely in place before they are filled with soil and planted. In order to finally fill the empty spaces in the planter and ensure greater stability, gravel, granulate or other light filling elements can be selected. 
As a cherub is understood a decorative element in many eras, which has a close relationship to the Christian religion and therefore is increasingly found in churches and chapels. A putto is always portrayed in the shape of a small, curly child, which is sparse and in most cases has a pair of wings. In their optics, putti thus lean on the idea of angels of Catholic or Protestant theology, but do not embody them in an adult form. The mythological figure of the angelic child, whom putti thus represent, can already be found in antiquity, for example in the form of the cubidos, which shoots with arrows at the same time as a small, winged angelic creature. The idea that these childish angels bestowed love and other pleasurable feelings over the centuries could also be found in the Christian religion, so that putting as a donor of happiness and messengers sent from heaven were put into the church architecture of many eras. Today, putti are not only to be found in churches, but are also offered as deco figures in numerous figures, which have a more or less childlike character. Putts are placed here not only in Christian households, but also in supporters of the esoteric and the angel faith, which could develop in this country in recent decades, detached from the Christian religion. 
As a Christmas ball, a hanging decorative ball is called, which are intended for use in Christmas trees and other arrangements for Advent and Christmas. Depending on the manufacturer, a Christmas ball has a large variety of designs and materials and can be made, for example, as glass, wood or metal impact. The latter is the most established choice for a Christmas ball, as this creates a shimmering and noble effect, which has a wide range of colors by choosing certain alloys. In addition to their purely spherical character, numerous manufacturers also offer their Christmas balls with additional decorations and decorations, which is usually applied to the outer shell of the thin ball. The sticking of small motifs and pictures is just as widespread as working with artificial snow or glitter, which remains permanently in its form due to the applied adhesive and can be applied in appealing patterns. The tradition of decorating a Christmas tree dates back only a few centuries, but just a few decades ago instead of Christmas balls, apples and similar, natural objects were used. Since these quickly became unsightly and more and more households could afford jewelery, today the use of shimmering Christmas balls is compulsory, but in their basic form they still lean on natural apples. 
The term color accent is a term from the general color theory, which is used in the visual arts as well as in floristry. A color accent means the use of a specific color that stands out from the totality of the selected colors or, through the absence of which, the overall impression of a picture or a bouquet is decisively changed. A color accent does not have to mean the dominant color of a bouquet, rather complementary colors are added as accents to this main color in order to significantly increase the aesthetic value. The color accent plays an important role in bouquets which, due to their use, should be dominated by a certain color, for example in black or dark red colors in funeral floristry. In this case, setting a color accent ensures that the entirety of the bouquet is not dominated by the main color alone, which is an appropriate effect both aesthetically and from the symbolic meaning of the bouquet. 
The term color chord comes from color theory and is used in addition to other artistic areas in modern floristry. Similar to a chord in music, in which several tones together produce a harmonious sound, the clever combination of colors is also intended to create an appealing, visual effect in the color chord. In floristry, this is essential when putting together bouquets and bouquets, which are usually made up of different flowers and thus receive different color nuances from the flower colors. A color chord follows the principles of classic color theory, which also applies to modern painting, for example, and the harmony of the assembled plants can arise in completely different ways, just like in music. The incorporation of contrasts in order to emphasize individual elements of a bouquet can be achieved with a suitable color chord as well as the compilation of flowers with similar colors, which complement each other in their coloring. The occasion for which a bouquet of flowers is to be put together also plays a role in the color theory in floristry, since on certain occasions such as a wedding or a funeral, different basic shades should dominate in the coloring. According to the laws of color theory, this dominance of a color can be broken through in a targeted manner and an appropriate floral arrangement can be put together with a suitable color chord. 
The color circle is a tool of color theory, which is also used in the field of floristry and is memorized by every graduate during the training for this profession. The classic color circle consists of twelve basic colors, which cover the entire spectrum of the color range and result in particular advantages due to the arrangement in a circle. For example, by looking at the opposing colors in the color wheel, you can find out which two shades bring about a particularly large, optical contrast. The color circle is also indispensable for the compilation of a triad of colors, since by drawing a triangle in the circle it becomes clear which three colors can be aesthetically combined. Through the use of the color wheel, all professional or private flower friends are given the opportunity to obtain aesthetic security in the color combination of flowers of all kinds, but statements about the general effects of the selected combination and its suitability for certain occasions are not based on Color circle.
