| Embrace Your Soul With Flowers |
| By: Linda Gray |
Be nice to yourself and indulge in one of nature's awesome
creations. It's true we don't actually NEED flowers in our daily
schedules BUT since when did humans stick to what they needed!
Giving a gift of flowers is always a thoughtful, if not
provocative, experience and is a gift that is definitely not
about money. A large bouquet from the local florist will no
doubt be beautiful and well worth the cash it costs. And
equally, the small bouquet of wildflowers lovingly collected by
an adored one will bring joy into your life.
Sprays of dried flowers and grasses can make beautiful displays
in your home over holiday seasons, or why not everyday?
Flowers are pressed into scrapbooks and journals. They are also
pressed for their scent and many perfumes are flower-based. Oils
are extracted for natural remedies and cosmetic applications.
Flower preparations can be time-consuming to produce and
therefore often expensive to the consumer. The absolute best way
round this is to go directly to the source and Grow your own!
It doesn't matter what month it is or what the weather's playing
at. You can still plan your flower garden. The choice of
flowers, plants and herbs available is so extraordinary, you may
as well start planning straight away!
Your flower garden can include all kinds of practical plants as
well as looking gorgeous...
Herbs attract the nice guys in the bug world which in
turn helps rid your flower bed of the pests! Thyme flowers are
so delicate and beautiful they really shouldn't be allowed!
Edible flowers include marigolds, nasturtiums and even
some roses. NB: double check on edible -ility before you pop a
plant in your mouth!
Decide on themes, colours, scents and set about choosing your
favourite blooms. A beautiful flower display takes a lot of
careful planning - or alternatively you could buy a wildflower
mix and scatter the seed randomly. Nature is often it's own
favourite artist!
If you're still not convinced, browse through a few gardening
catalogues. Wake up and smell the flowers - you won't remember
how you lived without them!
