| Flowers express senses and emotions far better than words. The beauty and the marvelous scent of flowers are always expressive and remain in memory for a long period. The kinds of flowers are numerous: growing wild or home-grown, exotic and typical, big and small and so forth. Almost all the flowers have a special meaning, but for most people to get a bunch of beautiful flowers means "I think of you" or “I love you”. Arranging flowers is a fascinating process, although when you don't have enough time for that you have a possibility to buy pre-arranged flowers, and you'll only have to check the level of the water daily. But if you'd like to arrange flowers on your own take into account that there are 2 fundamental variants of arranging: “all around” – for the flowers that are designated to be placed in the middle of the table and to be viewed from all sides, and “one-sided” – for flowers that are designated to be located in such a way that back side won't be viewed. When choosing flowers note that seasonal flowers are not only cheaper than out-of-season ones, but they last longer as well. It's a good idea to mix flowers as it will make the bunch more colorful. Besides, in case it contains delicate and long lasting flowers the bunch will have a longer life. And finally a number of hints on flower care. Take into consideration that the vase where you put pre-arranged flowers should always be full of room temperature water. Put the bowl in a cool place out of direct sun, make certain that there are no electrical appliances or air-conditioners in the area of a bunch. Freshly cut flowers should be re-cut under the stream of water with a pair of sharp scissors or a knife and then put in a vase with room temperature water. You may also use floral preservatives to keep the flowers live longer. In case your flowers are half-faded you may try the following technique. Put the whole flower in a big container with warm water, cut the stems with sharp scissors or a knife and leave them under the water for a couple of hours. This process will help them to come to life. Hope that these simple suggestions will help you to enjoy your flowers for a long period of time and to give joy to your loved ones. |
