4 inches or feet? Feet wide would should work fine but Romain is kind of a large taller plant and would likely tip over if not supported well. I'm not positive but I think this image is of Romain (it looks like it). In stores they usually just sell the harts of the plant, and take off the large outer leaves. It looks like the foam is 2 to 3 inches thick and supports them well.
