What is a primary use of wiring in floral arrangements?

Wiring is a technique used in floral arrangements primarily to provide structural support and flexibility in positioning stems and flowers. By using wire, florists can manipulate and curve stems into desired shapes and angles, allowing for more creative and aesthetically pleasing arrangements. This manipulation of the floral materials can enhance the overall design by enabling the florist to achieve specific looks or to emphasize particular elements of the arrangement.

In contrast, enhancing color, adding fragrance, or creating space between flowers are not primary functions of wiring. Color is typically influenced by the natural pigments of the flowers or additional floral sprays, while fragrance comes from the flowers themselves and is not affected by wiring. Creating physical space is generally achieved through the design layout rather than the use of wire, making the structural support and manipulation of stems the most relevant use of wiring in this context.
