"POOJA JAIN: Hi, this is Pooja from Valaya FNP, today on behalf of Expert Village. As phalaenopsis, the delicate flower and hydrangea being a stiff flower, that's the reason we've kept the hydrangea in the center. And because we want from the bunch that the flowers should be flowing out, to give it a flowing look, we are using the phalaenopsis on the outside boundary. Once you are ready with the bunch, you need to have a good grip in your hand as well. To tie up the flowers, we're using a wire, 32 number wire, that's the code for the wire, which we would be using to wrapping it around the bunch, which can hold the flowers tight in the bunch. As you can see it, we need to twirl the wire tight around the stems of the flowers. After the wire is wrapped around the flower stem, we use our fabric, which is called a non-woven sheet. This sheet is almost 2 feet in the length. It's just that we have made a center fold of it, right from the center, we fold it and we would be using the entire sheet to wrap around the bunch."
