Valentine's Day is Right Around the Corner!

Interesting fact:

Flower Tips

Re-cut the flower stems about 1 to 2 inches underwater using a sharp knife every other day. By cutting the stems under water, the stems are sealed with water and air cannot clog the stem cells with fewer bacteria to form, thus, allowing the flowers to last a longer life!  Also, cut the stems diagonally.  By doing this, you more importantly create a greater surface area for the flower to take in water and less importantly prevent less surface area of the stem to rest on the bottom of the vase.

Memorial Day

On Memorial Day, it is tradition for some to place flowers on the grave of those who have fallen while in service to our country.  It is common to see families purchase flowers in bulk (typically in red, white, or blue) to place on the gravesites of men and women who have died while serving the United States. If families have closer loved ones who have died while serving, larger pieces such as a wreath is typical for a gravesite. Flowers are a perfect way to help express the emotions of those who are still living.  To quote author Norah T. Hunter, “Flower arranging is an art form that enhances the quality of life. From birth to death flowers and floral arrangements heal sadness and sorrow and give comfort to the living.  Flowers give inspiration and hope in times of illness and despair.  They express emotions from deep within the soul, that often cannot be expressed with words. Symbolic of life and vitality, fresh flowers celebrate the happy and joyous occasions of life” (The Art of Floral Design).  This Memorial Day, remember your fallen service men and women in some fashion whether it be placing a flower on a gravesite, taking a moment of silence, or flying your flag at half-mast.
