Do you have flowers in your house?

[Ice.Maiden]

I love to see flowers round the place. The other week it was all lillies in an array of lovely colours, but the pollen makes me sneeze. Now it's gladioli - one of my faves.

In the summer I do, & they're usually from my own garden.

I've got some fake gerberas of all vibrant colours in a vase.

Fav flowers - sweet peas, daphne, gerberas, gypsophila, daisys & cornflowers.

We have always had house plants as far back as I can remember. I don't have a garden now, so any fresh cut flowers we have usually come from the supermarket. We probably average a bouquet every month or so.

Yes I have flowers and plants and pf course myself I am the prettiest flower in the house!!

[Ice.Maiden]

Lol - well I like to see some round a house. They make a place look pretty, cheerful and they often smell nice.

[pinky]

they also make it feel more homely

[Ice.Maiden]

Yes, but like Yogi, we don't get many flowers from our garden. We mainly have trees and shrubs in that, and then buy the flowers from shops or nurseries.

[pinky]

well OH buys me flowers every Friday!

[Ice.Maiden]

I mostly get them on a weekly basis as well!

[pinky]

sweet isnt it

[Ice.Maiden]

Certainly is - it was one of the stipulations I made when I got married. I told the OH that he had to carry on as he'd started, and he's never let me down yet.

[pinky]

aww thats nice hun hope my OH keeps it up

[Ice.Maiden]

It's a case of..... you MUST, you MUST..... : )

[pinky]

aww lol

[Ice.Maiden]

No, not really. I don't have to remind him these days. It's just something that he buys for me.

[pinky]

yes mine too every Friday as I said

[pilvikki]

aww thats nice hun hope my OH keeps it up

well, well, she did it again!



flowers? i prefer to pick mine from the yard, then they actually last more than a few days...

[pinky]

true Vikki th ehome grown ones are th ebest. What ones do you grow

[Ice.Maiden]

I can honestly say that roses and lillies which my OH brings in last for ages. The art of keeping roses going, is to snip the ends off the stalks and plunge them into boiling water for a few seconds. Don't put too many flowers into each vase, and all the buds'll open.

[pinky]

oh thanks for the tips. I like lillies also and of course pink and lavender flowers
