ABSTRACT:
The process of obtaining preserved flower blooms and other natural predominantly carbohydrate products such as flower stems, leaves and vegetables which are free standing and have a natural fresh and/or esthetically attractive appearance maintained over prolonged periods which comprises removing most or substantially all of the water present in the substrate, and exposing the substantially dried substrate to a thermoplastic elastomeric polymer capable of forming sparingly chemically linked or non-chemically bonded links with itself.
The process enhances dried materials including most ornamental blooms such as roses, orchids, tulips, daffodils, lillies and many others, as well as more traditional, usually air-dried plants such as gypsophila, statis, eucalyptus, larkspur, strawflowers, cornflowers, caspia, horsetail (equisetum arvense joint grass), etc.
