House Plant Help

July 28th, 2009 · Advice, Plants

Over the years our customers have repeatedly asked us questions related to how to care for my house plants. We always say, step one is knowing what plant you have then it is easy.

We have some great resources on how to care for your house plants. We also have some great resources to help you figure out the type of house plant you have and if all else fails you can email a picture and we will help with it.

First I would suggest the obvious. See if you have a tag identifying the plant in the soil or around the neck of the plant or on the bottom of the pot the house plant came in.

If that does not work you can search by plant photo, or the scientific plant name or the common plant name utilizing this nifty tool at Texas AM

After identifying the plant you may want to take at the encyclopedia of house plants to see how to care for your plant.

I hope this helps everyone and if you are looking to buy a plant we have a fantastic selection at great prices available for delivery nationwide!

What Flowers To Send To A Funeral Home

April 15th, 2009 · Advice, Special Cheap, funeral flowers

Sending flowers to a funeral home is something that most people do not do very often so here are some handy tips. You will want to send a one sided sympathy arrangement rather then an all around flower arrangement that would typically be placed on a table or counter. Funeral flowers in a funeral home tend to be large so a coffee table arrangement that is placed on the floor will tend to get lost. Put your flower money into the flowers that face everyone as most sympathy arrangements are placed against the wall on the floor.

I get lots of calls from people that say.. I want to send flowers and not spend a lot…but I don’t want to look cheap or… I don’t want them to look puny but I am working with a budget. Remember, send a one sided sympathy arrangement not a all around table flower arrangement.

Table-Arrangement-NO GOOD

Table-Arrangement-NO GOOD

Typical sympathy funeral arrangements are funeral baskets and funeral sprays they are most common and very appropriate. Another good thing to send to a funeral home is a floor plant. The peace lily is a great sympathy plant as it has a white flower and makes a good showing.

You also need to keep in mind that many of the deals you find online on our site provide you with great flower arrangements at big discounts. When you call our florist many of these items are internet only deals so place your order online.

So now you know what flowers to send to a funeral home and how to save money sending sympathy flowers.

If you have any questions stop by, give a call or send us an email.

Best Birthday Flowers

March 25th, 2009 · Advice, Birthday flowers, Gift Ideas

We get quite a few people asking us, what flowers to send on a Birthday?. The answer is not so simple. You have many choices and for every person their truly is a special touch that can make the birthday flowers very personal and more meaningful.

I would suggest thinking about what the person likes color or décor wise. If it is a modern high style look, then I would go with a tropical flower arrangement. However if it is a county home style then I would suggest rustic basket arrangement. If the person loves purple then you may want a vase of Iris. If you know the style or the color and cant find the appropriate flowers then give us a call and we can help you.

Sometimes it is a festive birthday arrangement that will do the trick. If that is what you want you are in luck. We have a great flower birthday cake, flower arrangements with streamers, birthday balloons to make every arrangement even more festive and more.

When it comes time to order birthday flowers it is most important just add some personal touches so that special person knows how thoughtful you were and how important they are to you.

Great Plant Information Site

March 16th, 2009 · Advice

Recently I came across a new website for the landscape architect, the practiced gardener, the amateur plant nerd and anyone who falls between the three. It is primarily a site for plant research. The site features a 50,000 plant encyclopedia, a garden showcase, a forum, a members’ journal, seasonal topics of interest, and listings of local garden groups.

What separates this site from other garden database websites is the “wiki” function which allows any member (membership is free) to contribute information about plants, successes and failures, helpful hints, post shots of their garden, etc. The information is vetted by other WikiGardens members to insure it is correct and trustworthy. The philosophy behind this is “many eyes make mistakes small” therefore the more users, the more accurate the information.

Additionally unique to Wikigardens is the absence of annoying pop up and sidebar ads. Vendors who chose to buy advertising on the site do so in the form of links back to their own website. This feature is useful because vendors are sorted by the zip code closest to the member. When searching for a particular plant to purchase, your choices will be closer to home.

Like any wiki site, it is only as robust and vigorous as the users who
contribute to it. We invite any and all to visit Wikigardens, become a
member and “dig” in the garden.
