Breaking Apart the Grass
To make good use of the whip grass, pull the bundles from the main stem.
|
As shown in the image, the smaller bundles can be used as is, especially ones with tassels.
|
|
Individual blades can also be pulled off and either placed around the
floral bouquet, or bound to other, less adorned flowers with floral tape.
The non-tassel stems of grass can be curled by dragging a thumbnail along the upper third of the length.
|
Note that this procedure doesn't work on all types, so check that what you try curling has the thin, curl-able blades.
