About Flowers

jason c asked:


I’m looking to buy my girlfriend some hibiscus flowers, no real occasion or anything, and I just want to get her a few, because they’re going to be given with other things. I live in Massachusetts, if that has any effect of the value.

I’m looking more for individual flowers, instead of any arrangement.

I am having a very small reception at my mother’s house during the middle of July. She said that we could plant some bulbs and have the flowers in bloom around that time. My wedding colors are pink and chocolate with a little bit of white, so those colors would be wonderful as I would really like to skip the florist. Thank you!

I have a 16 inch pot with a planter stand that sets down in it with about a 8 inch pot at the top of it. I need some flowers that are really colorful, but have to be able to take full shade. I am looking for something to be very ful but still hanging over the pot at the bottom and them something at the top pot that is standing tall in the center and another flower to hang from the sides on it as well. I am not very good with flowers so links to photos of them would be wonderful!! PLEASE help!

I planted some flowers and then it suddenly turned cold. My flowers are drooping and beginning to look like they’re dieing. How do I save them? I don’t know what kind of flowers they are.
I planted them in the ground.

i live in Nevada. I have no clue whatsoever on how to take care of a lawn let alone plant flowers but i know i want to learn being this as our first house with a backyard.

Pretty decent size i’d estimate around 25×15. The grass is totally dead (if any at all) at the moment but the owners are planning on resodding it for us.

So any tips or websites on how to care for it and what types of flowers to choose for Nevada’s climate.?? Really want something low-maintenence.

I have been preparing for a summer wedding all year but now I will not be able to have my wedding until late October, early November 2007 because I can’t get my fiance here until then because of visa technicalities. I was wondering what kinds of plants and flowers are available for that time of year? I know florists can get you just about anything but I am working with a smaller budget and was thinking about buying potted plants and flowers from a nursery to add greenery and color. The wedding will be outside so I need some plants to liven up our garden that will be mostly dormant by that time. This has been very last minute news and I have no idea what to do. Any suggestions?

I live in Zone 7b. I am wanting to do a flower bed next to my house facing east. My thumb is not green. Does anyone have any suggestions as to tall flowers for close to the house, mid-high flowers for the middle, and a good border flower? I would like to do a variety of different colored Foxgloves for next to the house and some Phlox for the border. Any suggestions?
There are no big trees nearby, just a tall thin bush/tree on the south side of the garden that doesn’t realy give much shade. Otherwise it’s pretty much open. It’s in Oklahoma, like I said, zone 7b. so it can get pretty hot. I really don’t want anything taller than about 4′ or so in the back right up next to the house, that’s why I was thinking Foxgloves. Something that is really too much taller than that would be too tall in my opinion. Any more suggestions? So far everything sounds great and maybe my thumb will have a tinge of green this year!
