Summer border flower arrangements should be planned so that there is a constant supply of foliage and colour all summer long. This involves choosing a good selection of varieties which will flower at different times during the summer months to create a wonderful prolonged display. Sending flowers to loved ones can be very rewarding and make great mothers day gifts! Before planning, take a trip to a few garden centres and nurseries to see what they have on offer. This is good food for thought and will help you to develop some ideas of what you might like to include in your own displays. As you go around, make notes and perhaps take some pictures for future reference. Taking photos allows you to create a visual representation of colour schemes and height arrangements and will be very convenient for future reference. When at the planning stage, take some measurements of the plot of land you have available. When you're sure that you've taken down the correct measurements, plan the plot on paper and begin to section off the border into manageable chunks. A good rule when planning borders is the 'rule of three'. That is to say, split the border into three 'height-based' sections to create contours and fluidity and then work your flower choices into this scheme however you wish.

More cost effective than solid hardwood floors but more durable than carpeting, laminate flooring has become a popular choice for homeowners and developers looking for an attractive and durable product.  The appearance of laminate floor planks is that of wood, but the thickness is much less than its wood counterpart.  Also, the strength of laminate flooring combined with its thin profile makes it ideal for transition areas to other floor types such as tile.

Easter Flowers brought out the hidden love in my sister. It happened last year, when after a long time I got a chance to spend some quality time with my sister. Distance is definitely an issue that keeps us apart, but a major reason was her workaholic nature that even the thought about family life eluded her. But this Easter I somehow managed to convince her and made her come home. And guess what; we had the best Easter weekend together. She was absolutely delighted to get back home and even enjoyed helping me tend my flowers in the garden. She seemed content and at peace looking at all the flowers. That gave me an idea of a perfect Easter gift for my beloved sister. I surfed the Internet to get some floral arrangements or vase flower arrangements that I thought she might enjoy. While I was searching I remembered the flowers that I had received from my best friend from OnlineFlowers. I had got the Mixed Vase - Blues and Pinks floral arrangement from OnlineFlowers. The vase had the Easter flowers arranged very well. I didn't waste any time [more..]

If you're looking for somewhere to spend the day with your family this summer then I'd recommend the La Concepcion Botanical Gardens, close to Malaga City. I spent some time there recently with my sister, brother-in-law and family If you're a tree fan you'll be in your element, but those who prefer flowers may feel slightly disappointed, as trees definitely rule the roost! There's even a special section called ‘Around The World in 80 Trees' featuring 80 trees from across the globe. If you actually stop at each tree and study it, then you can see how they look different from ordinary trees. I was certainly in my element at the gardens, mainly because of the abundance of frogs. I make no secret of the fact that I simply ADORE frogs. Not in the way that I'd like to plant wet ones on their cheeks (although if they turned into handsome prices I might consider it….), but simply to watch them be. They jump around from lily pad to pond without a care in the world…what a life hey?! The froggys were also the highlight of the day for my two nieces, Charli [more..]
