Explanation:
Hi Margarete,

m.E. ist *greening pin* der englische Oberbegriff für die verschiedenen *Floristennadeln* (Floristennadeln ergibt nur wenige Treffer bei Google - der Begriff kam mir spontan in den Sinn)

Für die anderen von dir genannten Nadelformen gibt es auch verschiedene Bezeichnungen im Englischen:
Römerhaften = Roman pins
Patenthaften = Mossing pegs
Strohblumennadeln = Strawflower needles
Efeunadeln = Ivy needles
Artischockennadeln = Artichok needles
(Siehe Link - mit Abbildungen!)

Ich würde Strohblumennadeln oder Floristennadeln schreiben.
