'Shark Tank' investment Alice's Table blossoms in Cape Coral, Southwest Florida - The News-Press

I sent an email to Alice and less than a month later, I became the Southwest Florida event exec." She is pleased with the initial response, with classes at Anthony's on the Boulevard in Cape Coral, private classes at Shell Point in Fort Myers and bookings for bridal showers, holidays and even themed events.  Petals and Pilates is a pilates class on May 11 followed by the Alice's Table floral arranging class with snacks sponsored by Kind. A second one will be held an afternoon on May 12 at Lynq restaurant called "Mom's Day Out at the Lynq," which includes a complimentary glass of Champagne.   A return to Tipsy Cow is set for May 20.  "People are looking for more relaxing activities to do around town — and this one really uses the sense of touch, sight and smell," Beck said. The attendees don aprons to protect their clothing, and get a brief introduction to flower arranging, with tips liberally sprinkled in along the way. They can do arrangements, wreaths and flower crowns for flower girls or other festivities. "I love the fact that many of the instructional tips you learn can help someone create an arrangement at home the next time they run into their local grocery store for flowers like a pro," Beck said. From how much water the flowers need and the water temperature, stripping the leaves off to keep them above the water level, and marking the container off in a tic-tac-toe grid with tape to keep proportions right, she kept the class on track. A mishap with hydrangeas had her scrambling at the last minute. "They get a little persnickety," Beck said. "We're not giving you brown flowers. We want you guys to make the most beautiful arrangements." She substituted a solitary yellow rose. "We're not cheap and chintzy with these flowers," Beck said, the va... https://www.news-press.com/story/news/2018/04/28/shark-tank-investment-alices-table-blossoms-cape-coral-southwest-florida/510159002/

Nikki’s sons, Michael and John, were the last to run Nunziato Florists up until its sale.The end of the longtime business comes as the block and neighboring sites are undergoing significant change. The J & Sons Supply property on the corner of 51st Street and Roosevelt Avenue, just footsteps away from Nunziato Florists, sold for $15 million in 2017 and is slated for demolition.The Payag restaurant next to the flower shop, meanwhile, also closed in 2017.

After A Fire Destroyed 7000 Of His Plants, Kansas City's Orchid Grower Comes Out Of His Cave - KCUR

For now, Bird has no retail space but will set up shop at the River Market in downtown Kansas City and at the Overland Park Farmers' Market, so customers will be able to find him. "Without the cave, a lot of people are going, 'What do I do?' We get a lot of plant doctoring. They'll come in and the leaves are soft and withering, and that's because they've probably overwatered it." It takes seven years for orchids to bloom, so they're not quite as delicate as their reputation. "It's got to be able to put through a lot of harsh conditions," Bird says. "The only couple things are: Don't freeze it, don't cook it, and don't put it outside in full sun after it's been inside in shady conditions." Still, keeping orchids alive in the non-tropical Midwest is part of what's attractive about having them. "It's the challenge and also they want to see it bloom with their own experience," Bird says of his customers. "It's when they bloom it themselves, now they feel like they have a sense of accomplishment. Now that plant becomes part of the family, and they might have it for years and years." David Bird spoke with KCUR on a recent episode of Central Standard.

Hydrangeas are gorgeous, but here’s why they don’t thrive in the Kansas City area - Kansas City Star

Sign Up and Save Get six months of free digital access to The Kansas City Star #ReadLocal At least a half day of sun, preferably morning, and protections from the extreme afternoon heat produces the best flowers. Hydra means water, so this plant requires evenly moist, well-drained soil to survive. A dry location or poor, clay soil will doom the plant. The large leaves will wilt on a warm, sunny day even with ample moisture. Bigleaf hydrangea blooms are gorgeous. The majority of the varieties on the market today are remontant, or reblooming, flowering in spring and fall. Flower timing To use another old saying, the proof is in the pudding when it comes to its ability to rebloom. The best flower buds appear on old wood. Buds are set in late summer and flower the next spring. ... https://www.kansascity.com/living/liv-columns-blogs/kc-gardens/article226210655.html
