ABSTRACT:
A guide for the placement of flora into flora receiving means such as a conventional flower pot with moistened florist foam deposited therein to assist the novice in creating a substantially symmetrical arrangement of professional quality. The guide comprises a base having a central opening for positioning around the flora receiving means and includes a plurality of resilient, elongated wires extending therefrom to form a symmetrical area such as a dome defined by the wires and base. In the preferred embodiment, a square frame supported by adjustable legs may be positioned to surround the flora receiving means and includes linear extensions having notches cut or otherwise formed therein for releasable attachment of the base thereto such that the symmetrical area of the base is coaxial with the flora receiving means. The wires of the base define a plurality of spaced openings through which cut flora is passed and inserted stem first into the florist foam such that the free ends of the flora do not extend substantially beyond the area defined by the wires. Once the area is substantially filled with flora, the guide is removed from the frame. The user may then remove the flower pot and resulting symmetrical arrangement from within the confines of the frame or may instead use a second guide concentrically larger than the first to create a second layer of symmetrically placed flora to the arrangement.
