Warm weather favors blooming flowers, trees, shrubs and bugs - Winston-Salem Journal

Triad — mosquitoes, said Louis Jackai, an entomologist and the chairman of the Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Design at N.C. A&T State University in Greensboro.Mosquitoes breed around sources of water such as rivers and streams, Jackai said.However, mosquitoes and other biting insects likely will remain dormant during these final days of winter, he said.“Once it starts getting warm, they (mosquitoes) will be active,” Jackai said. “They could get their butts frozen if the temperatures drops below freezing at night.”Low temperatures at night in the low to high 30s or cooler likely will minimize activity among the mosquitoes and other insects, he said.“When it’s real good and cold, no self-respecting mosquito would be out,” Jackai said.#ndn-video-player-3.ndn_embedded .ndn_floatContainer { margin-top: 10px; margin-bottom: 20px; }... http://www.journalnow.com/news/local/warm-weather-favors-blooming-flowers-trees-shrubs-and-bugs/article_a9c4b464-954c-55fe-9251-8b399148a0bf.html

Pay it forward with these beautiful bouquets - WTVD-TV

Stella Grey Blooms in Chicago's North Center neighborhood is selling Pay It Forward flowers.Owner Sally Hayes said the inspiration for the idea came from a fellow florist who lives in Miami."You send somebody flowers and you don't say who it's from," Hayes said. You write things like 'I hope these make your day' or ' I hope they brighten your day' and at the end, you just say 'Pay it forward.'"All of the bouquets are sanitized and hand-delivered."A lot of times I get a call of people asking who sent me this," Hayes said. "I say 'I can't tell', it's the whole process of it, it gets people reaching out to their friends and it sort of escalates from that."For more information about the Pay It Forward bouquets, visit Stella Grey Blooms' website. https://abc11.com/localish/pay-it-forward-with-these-beautiful-bouquets/6135376/
