Foliages are integral part in flower arrangement which plays an important role since it can hide the mechanics of an arrangement. Besides this they make an arrangement look complete and form the base and background against which the placement of flower looks elegant. The study has aimed to optimize different drying methods vis-a-vis stage of harvest for quality dry foliages, effectivity of glycerinisation as a drying tool/method and skeletonisation to increase storage life of foliages along with identification of suitable bleaching method and to find out the effectivity of different dyes on some bleached and dried items. Preparation of some value added products from the locally available foliages is an opportunity for small farmers to operate a sustainable alternative enterprise.
