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:

Impress that special someone by brushing up on the meaning and history of flower giving. We've outlined a bit of history on flower giving along with a list of some of the more common flowers and their meanings so that you can best express yourself through flowers.

Flowers were once part of lengthy courtships, dating back to the Middle Ages. This was a form of communication allowing couples to express themselves to one another without being overheard. Different types of flowers conveyed different messages, and how the flowers were delivered factored into the meaning as well.

Despite all the changes of individual meanings, sending and receiving flowers still remains a ritual today. It continues to be one of the most popular social amenities symbolizing beauty, appreciation and affection.
