Did you know that lifejackets used to be filled with sunflower stems?
This is just one of the thousands of fascinating flower facts.
Flowers bring color and happiness into our life. People often hesitate
to buy fresh flowers because they think they can't get them to last more than
a couple of days. Some flowers are shortlived, but most commercially
grown flowers will last at least a week if treated right. Commercially-grown
flowers are specially treated after cutting, which means they will last
longer than varieties cut from the garden. Conditioning is the term florists
use to mean getting the flowers ready for arranging. By following these few
simple steps you can get extra life and pleasure from your flowers.
Nothing dresses up a home's exterior like a few well-placed and well-designed
flower beds. Flowers can make any home more inviting. The splash of color
and the sweep of texture these living things bring to a yard also speak to the
vitality and optimism of the occupants. While flower gardening is not difficult
and can be learned as you go, there are a few things to consider before you
begin.
