I want fresh flowers for my bouquet and these are not an option – only available in some countries and don’t last long, but I love the look of them. Does anyone know of an orchid or other flower that looks very similar to the white and yellow ones that are tinged with pink?

Kelan07 asked:


There are probably 7 healthy white flowers on my raspberry bush (the bush isn’t all that big). I don’t want to cut them off to promote better growage, I wanna see if they can actually produce fruit. How long from this stage (the flower) will it take to produce a raspberry?
Or how long on a Blueberry bush?

Thanks All !

EF asked:


I see the flowers partially open in the morning as I leave for work but when I get back in the evening, they are all withered. It looks like the flower got ****** back into itself.

What’s up with that? How long does the bloom usually last?
They die soon after, never to come back into my life again… :(
I **** work. If I wasn’t working, I would watch these beautiful flowers for hours.

Jodi asked:


I’ve been looking all over the internet for flower heads to make clips for my little girl’s hair. I see tons of them being sold already in clip form for way more than I want to spend. I would like to make my own and be able to make them for fairly cheap. I want the flowers to be decent quality. I’ve looked at Joann’s and Michael’s, etc. and haven’t really found much.

My boyfriend bought me a lovely bouquet for Valentine’s day, but it’s starting to wilt already. Is there a way to dry the whole flowers in the microwave without having to press them.
Flowers are red roses and tulips.

I will start with indoor growing, and move outdoors when the season begins. Which flowers are hard to get ( mainly midwest ), and are a good flower to grow for profit. Any input is appreciated. Thanks

One that, if you were at least somewhat familiar with flowers, you could pick out the scent without seeing the flower.
