I know when it’s hotter out you need to water your plants and flowers more often, and I’ve heard that you shouldn’t water your flowers everyday, unless it’s hot out. But, my question is, how much water should I give my flowers. I have a variety of flowers in pots. I’ve heard you should water them until it starts to drip out from the bottom, is that true? Can you over water flowers?

We just moved and there is no type of landscaping in the yard. I would like to plant some flowers or flowering shrubs in the front and back. The front gets quite a bit of sun and the back is pretty shady. I am in Kenosha, which is southeastern Wisconsin, in the MidWest. I really like hydrangeas and dahlias, but don’t know anything about planting, care, etc. Please any advice for an extreme novice on a budget. Thanks a lot!

I have been preparing for a summer wedding all year but now I will not be able to have my wedding until late October, early November 2007 because I can’t get my fiance here until then because of visa technicalities. I was wondering what kinds of plants and flowers are available for that time of year? I know florists can get you just about anything but I am working with a smaller budget and was thinking about buying potted plants and flowers from a nursery to add greenery and color. The wedding will be outside so I need some plants to liven up our garden that will be mostly dormant by that time. This has been very last minute news and I have no idea what to do. Any suggestions?

My theme is Chocolate, my colors so far are a dark espresso brown, Ivory, and Tan. Like the colors of chocolate. I’m having a hard time finding flowers to go with my theme. I was hoping to find a dark brown accent flower, with maybe some ivory calililys, or even hydrangia. Since I’m having such a hard time, I’ve been thiking of adding a little bit of color to the whole scheme, but that would totally defeat the whole chocolate idea, unless I did like a minty green or a sage. I’m completely stuck. Any ideas?

I’m looking for flowers for bouquets, decorations, and centerpieces. Would like to know some good flowers, preferably some I could order online and make my own arrangements. I’m getting married in May, so I’m looking for flowers that would be in bloom at that time. Thanks!

luv’nthe80s asked:

I am beginning to make flower arrangements and need a safe way to store the flowers that aren’t yet in arrangements so they won’t get crushed. Some flowers will snap back but some won’t, I don’t want to find out if mine will or not as some of them are a little expensive. I currently have them loosley stored in stacked boxes inside a small walk-in closet. I would like a way I can store them upright where I can see them and not have them all smushed together. Thanks!

♥ asked:

I have some planters full of dry dirt. What would be good to put in there and how? If flowers, what are some good ( low cost) flowers I could plant that grow well in summer in SoCal heat? The area gets some shade and sunlight. I also have a dog who loves to dig, so if there is something else I could put there, those ideas are good too. I have no idea!

PseudoGuru asked:

I have flowers from an event that have been air drying for over a year (sort of forgot about them). Since they’ve become fragile, I’m concerned over typical methods used to wax fresh flowers because I’m afraid the wax will be too thick and will cause my flowers to break. Is there anything that can be done to thin the wax down or is there another approach that could be used to preserve them?
