The St. Hannibal Multi Level School is an institution built to help poor children get high quality education. We took a tour of the St. Hannibal Multi Level School and found that they need help – a lot of it. This is why we’ve took it upon ourselves to dedicate a part of our income from our funeral flowers to help them raise funds and awareness so that they can get more kids in school.
Roses are one of the most popular flowers in the world due to their beauty and deep symbolism. It is said that there is a rose of every color for every person, for every emotion. However, besides being popular for these admirable qualities, roses are also well-known to be one of the more difficult flowers to grow. They need very specific conditions to look and stay at their best. Just one missing requirement and a healthy bush of roses can wither and (if not remedied immediately) die. Continue Reading »

We receive a dozen red roses that say “I Love You”, a stunning bouquet on our wedding, gifts for our anniversaries birthdays, graduations—the list is endless. Of course, we want to preserve happy memories forever, if possible. We can take pictures of the flowers but that isn’t as good as the real thing, is it? Some of us resort to the old practice of putting flowers between the pages of thick and heavy books to preserve them. The flowers come out dry and flat. While this is better than nothing, we can’t help but wish that flowers don’t wilt and decay so that we can keep them forever as mementos of that special time in our lives. Continue Reading »
Roses can be cultivated by hand in a backyard garden or in a traditional flower farm. To produce high-quality roses, conditions such as soil type, amount and type of fertilizer, moisture, and temperature should be kept as perfect as possible. Pest control is also a top priority of any rose grower. However, some of the factors in growing the best roses possible are often things that no grower can ever have the power to control. Factors, such as the unpredictable changes in temperature (rain, excessive heat), the moisture content in the air and in the soil, and the invasion of pests in the garden. Growing roses takes skill and patience. Growing good roses the natural way takes skill, patience, and most important of all: talent. Continue Reading »
