General Flower Care Tips
|
Pothos
Pothos is a good climber if given support, and they do well indoors with bright
but indirect sunlight. Keep the soil moist and fertilise every two weeks. Maintain
shape by pinching back.
Sansevieria
Make sure you don’t over-water this plant, and keep the soil just moist.
Sansevieria is a succulent plant and requires bright indirect sunlight and rich
potting soil.
Schefflera
Schefflera are beautiful, easy care leafy green plants. They grow well indoors
in full sunlight. When watering, drench the soil & allow it to become moderately
dry between waterings. Feed monthly spring through summer.

A bit of Flower History
|
If
you decide to give the gift of flowers, it will mean so much more if you're familiar
with some of the meanings behind them. Imagine giving a bouquet of purple irises,
crocuses, and ivy to your special someone on Valentine's Day, and being able to
share that this was a traditional bouquet given on this day in Medieval times
because the iris meant "heat aflame," the crocus, "joy," and
the ivy ensured the recipient was wanted "above all others." A red carnation
was delivered to a loved one who was absent, and snowdrops sent a message of the
desire to rekindle an old romance. |
