The Romance of Fresh Flowers in the Middle of Winter


Most people feel that Valentine's Day is not complete without flowers, but as almost everyone knows, February is not exactly the flower growing season.

So even gardeners have to join the rest of the people by purchasing fresh flowers in the local flower shop. Roses are by far the favorite - last year some 214 million of flowers were placed on the market for Valentine's Day. Of course, this does not mean that other flowers and potted plants are not popular.

It does not really matter what you choose for the special occasion, provided that at heart, and remember to take care of her flowers once the big day is over. This means that you keep fresh cut flowers in clean water with chlorine to prevent bacteria from attacking the stems. The stems should be cut off as soon as you get flowers. While potted flowers need to stay out of direct sunlight, which is pretty easy in this time of year.
