I had a band competition yesterday and my cousin came and bought me flowers and told me, "these flowers will just continue to keep growing as long as you change the water every three days and trim is every once and a while." I said ok and thanked her, but I was wondering how exactly does a flower live forever in a vase?
So I looked them up and found out that they really can live in a vase for quite a while. I thought since they're practically year round flowers, maybe I could plant one in my backyard next to my garden or around it, but I'm kind of nervous to do so. It says I can plant a bulb now and as long as I keep up with it, it should grow(Almanac). The only problem is I've never planted anything before, so I'm a little up in the air about it. Although as long as I do my research and keep up with it it should be fine.
When I went to Oregon last week I also bought my mom seeds for new flowers in the garden, and they also need to be planted in autumn. So maybe that'll be another day out in the backyard with my family. It'll be nice to sit outside and make improvements for the garden, especially since we haven't done anything as a family out there since August.

Those are pretty flowers; just like this post. What kind of flowers are they? Will you be able to plant one of them soon? I can't wait to read more.
ReplyDeleteI doubt if the lilies have a bulb still attached. A bulb looks a lot like an egg of sorts. They usually look pretty dead. Stargazer lillies are hard to grow in Nevada.
ReplyDeleteThis is both my mother's and my favorite flower. I love them, Once I saw them I had to comment. They are gorgeous aren't they.
ReplyDeleteSuch a pretty flower. How long does the flower live up to? Does the weather from outside affect your flower indoors at all? Do you feed your plant with anything other than water?
ReplyDeleteI really liked how you have the curiosity to find how long these flowers live. I also enjoyed how you will try planting flowers in your garden someday, after you learned about their life span.
ReplyDeleteThose are nice flowers. I like your curiosity. I would like to know how long their life span is.
