Arch Flower Calculator

Stem counts and cost for a floral arch or a moongate, from a light trim to a full asymmetric design.

Arch height m

From the ground to the top of the structure, not to the top of the tallest flower.

Span across the top m

The distance between the two legs, measured inside the frame.

How much of the arch is dressed

The trade figures are for an arch of about 2.1 to 2.4 metres.

Density multiplier times

One is the standard density for the coverage you chose. Above 1.2 makes the arch noticeably fuller and heavier.

Focal flowers as a share of the flower stems %

Large focal blooms in the clustered areas. Thirty percent is a generous asymmetric design.

Foliage as a share of all the stems %

Foliage covers the frame, which is what makes the flowers read. Forty to fifty percent is normal.
