Flower Care Tips:

Orchid
Orchids grow well in bright indirect sunlight and can produce flowers at anytime. Most orchids have sphagnum moss potting mix and should be kept evenly moist. Be careful not to over-water.

Peace Lily
Peace lilies need full sunlight away from drafts. When watering, drench the soil and allow it to dry between watering. Feed every two weeks during summer.

Philodendron
Philodendrons are poisonous if they are ingested, so do not keep them around children. They are easy-to-care-for plants and they like the indoors and grow best in indirect sunlight. Keep this plant's soil barely.

Flower History:

If you decide to give the gift of flowers, it will mean so much more if you're familiar with some of the meanings behind them. Imagine giving a bouquet of purple irises, crocuses, and ivy to your special someone on Valentine's Day, and being able to share that this was a traditional bouquet given on this day in Medieval times because the iris meant "heat aflame," the crocus, "joy," and the ivy ensured the recipient was wanted "above all others." A red carnation was delivered to a loved one who was absent, and snowdrops sent a message of the desire to rekindle an old romance.
