Always Cut The Stems Of Flowers At An Angle...
Throughout
the world, people express their feelings through flowers. Flowers
seem to have a magical quality that no other gift has. It can be
a sign of love, appreciation, or apology. Flowers serve a host of
other purposes, as no celebration is quite complete without flowers
adorning the venue.
Here are a few things you need to know when you buy flowers:
- If you are buying a bouquet, never buy a readymade one. These
invariably have old flowers. Always have a bouquet made to order
or if possible, make it a point to be present when it is being
put together.
- Apart from the flowers used in a bouquet, the materials used
like the cellophane, board and ribbons are important, for both
appearance and durability.
- A few tips on keeping cut flowers fresh longer.
- Pick flowers early in the morning or early evening. Wrap damp
paper towels around their stems until you get them indoors and
plunge them immediately into a container of water.
- Once inside, cut the stems at an angle and put them in a pail
of tepid water. ( Use a sharp kinfe, since scissors will compress
the stems. . Sub-Categories Irrigation Systems Landscaping Nurseries
