his modern garden-style design—ideal for Mother's Day—features OASIS® Midnight Floral Foam,
giving it design a sophisticated look. Gray when dry, Midnight Floral Foam transforms to a rich black
hue when soaked, creating the perfect canvas for any design from traditional to contemporary.
OASIS® Midnight Floral Foam is intended to be left visible, especially in minimalist floral
compositions that are both on trend and perfect for consumers with modern and artistic tastes.
Because the black floral foam becomes a design element, few, if any, foliages are required, and fewer insertions
reduce design labor. In this design, narrow "valleys" between some of the flowers are intentionally created, to
expose the floral foam, creating further depth and interest.
e OASIS® Midnight Floral Foam is secured into an ECOssentials™ container with the new OASIS® Midnight
Waterproof Tape—a perfect complement to Midnight Floral Foam because it recedes into the design.
