Floral Foam Bricks

Quality floral foam bricks are the one of most basic florist supplies used by designers. I recommend using OASIS® Standard Floral Foam, which a brand trusted by top designers around the world.

OASIS® standard bricks measure 9" x 4" x 3" and is scored at half and third measurements for easy and accurate cutting.

Each brick should be "float soaked" - meaning you should let the brick sink in the water by itself. It will saturate completely, with the brick holding up to an amazing two quarts of water!

Florist foam is available in several different density weights. It depends on what type of flower and your own needs in designing when making your choice of foam.

1. Light Density - for hollow, delicate stems such as daffodils,iris, tulips, etc.

2. Instant - this is the choice if you have to make arrangements quickly - such as for holiday work like Valentines day.

3. Standard, - This is a medium density, fine for most arrangements including roses, carnations, pomps, liatris, etc.

4. Deluxe is punched for faster saturation of water.

5. Advantage Plus is more of an economy foam - usually for the florist watching their pennies. It is a light to medium density that has average stem grip.

I have many florist supplies and products available in my wedding store. See the slideshow below for a preview.
