Flower Care Tips:

Fern
Fern grows well in direct sunlight and in rich potting soil. Keep the soil dry to moist to keep this plant looking perfect in a hanging basket.

Croton
Crotons are poisonous and should be kept well away from children and pets. They need full sunlight and barely moist soil. Feed weekly and pinch back to keep the plant in good shape.

Cyclamen
Cyclamen are dormant in summer, but at other times of the year they provide plenty of colours. They should be repotted in late summer and kept cool. Stop watering in late spring and resume watering in late summer. Cyclamen are also poisonous.

Flower History:

For women, flowers are an absolutely fail-safe romantic gift. Gentlemen, you cannot go wrong by buying your special someone a bouquet or a single stem of her favorite flower. Giving flowers to men can be tricky however. Some men would welcome this role reversal and appreciate the sentiment, while others would feel insulted, and perhaps a little wounded as well. So stop a moment and consider what you know about your partner so that you can make an educated decision. If you have your doubts, don't buy him flowers. There are plenty of other options.
