Need help, please. What does the term "ins and outs" mean? I had an email inquiry requesting price quotes on the most detailed, peppered-with-floral-jargon I've ever heard. One excerpt: "A rounded collection designed with ins and outs from green cymbidium orchids, green hydrangea, polar star roses, & white freesia finished w/lots of bear grass and wrapped in black satin ribbon". In fifteen years of doing weddings I think I've heard that term once before, but I cannot remember what it means.

Wondering if it could be the tufts of ribbon that you tuck into a bouquet leaving a little "streamer" hanging out? But, tufts of ribbon
Also, "polar star rose"? Is that a garden rose?
Almost sounds like it's another florist or someone who is price shopping with another florist's description sheet. She also describes the ribbon for corsages as "organza" -- not a term commonly used outside of the industry.

Polar Star roses are a large headed white rose. Visit www.eufloriaflowers.com and go to galleries and then rose gallery and then select the whites/creams and you'll find it listed. Very pretty rose, more of a creamy/yellowy white, not as white white as an Akito.
Never thought about it being from Eufloria. I didn't realize they had a gallery up. Thank you for that link!
My pleasure. There are a couple of other growers on that variety but Eufloria roses are almost without exception better than other growers.
No- It sounds like a bride who got a quote with this sort of florist mumbo jumbo and they want to see how other shops prices compare.
That's where I'd put my money

I believe this person is referring to negative and positive space as well as creating depth in the 'collection.'
I think Shannon is right - that verbage has been pre-packaged and is now being shopped.:hammer:
