Planting roses: To plant roses which have been obtained from a nursery first water the rose, and then remove it from the pot. If the rose is in a paper pot cut off the bottom and remove the sidewalls so that the fine, new white feeder roots of the growing plant might be preserved.
Violets in French history:When Napoleon died he was wearing a locket around his neck which contained violets which had been growing at Josephine's grave site. No reason needed to give flowers: Don't forget that no reason is often the best reason to send men flowers. Just as women love receiving flowers for no reason at all, a surprise floral gift will surely catch his attention too.
