Tuesday, April 16, 2019Blooming dahlias should be available now in most nurseries and garden centers.Tip of the Week: A special sale of orchids to readers is being held by Art and Aurora Mendoza on March 22, 23, and 24 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. at 16057 Nordhoff St., North Hills, 91343. Refreshments will be served. The Mendozas specialize in growing dozens of cymbidium orchid varieties, available in 8-inch and one-gallon containers for $5-10 dollars. Dendrobium and Cattleya orchids will also be on sale. Cymbidiums are nearly always grown in containers but they may also be planted in the ground in suitably amended soil.

From exquisite Orchids to lush Fuchsia, let the shades of ‘Awakening’ inspire your home garden - Architectural Digest India
Tuesday, April 16, 2019Also, known as the Red Edged Madagascar Dragon Tree, the staggered cane is a great alternative to the silk bamboo as an indoor plant with similar Feng Shui benefits.LIPSTICK PLANT Aglaonema Siam AuroraThis stunner has leaves has that show off dark green leaves elegantly flushed with bright pink veins that makes it look like a woman’s painted lips. A relatively new addition to the houseplant world, the stylish shrub grows best in mild, indirect light which is why it is best suited for coffee tables and office desks. The plant needs minimal care and its attractive features make it the perfect hostess gift! Place it in an ivory white planter alongside a pink polka dot plant (listed below) and you have a sureshot conversation starter!PINK POLKA DOT PLANT Hypoestes PhyllostachyaThe polka dot plant’s hot pink foliage would announce a pop of colour in even a plain jane living room! Get the most from the polka dot plant’s bright color by growing it a pot that contrasts or complements the colorful foliage. Mix it with other polka dot plant varieties that have white or red leaves to create a peppered look! The plant looks best short, so keep pruning and pinching it often and since it is an annual, do remember that it has a short shelf life.RED AMARANTH Amaranthus CruentusThis superfood looks superb when grown in the kitchen. Even if you do not have a green thumb, the salad leaf can be grown using soil-less gardening techniques, in a plant gel or hydroponically. Having a steady supply of the nutritious plant growing on the window sill also means you could save some grocery shopping money! Many small, tropical, songbirds draw nectar from the amaranth flower so expect pleasant surprises at the kitchen window, when this one blossoms!DWARF LILY Nymphaea RubraThis emerse plant comes from the same genus as the water lily and is a big hit with aquarium keepers! While you won’t be able to find one at a plant nursery, it is easily available at most tropical fish shops! It is fairly easy to grow even in low light plant which is why it is recommended even to amateur aquascapers. It grows from a bulb and has both leaves underwater and lily pads on top of the water. Even if you don’t keep fish as pets, this makes an attractive spectacle when grown in a glass vase or decanter! All you have to do is top up the water levels from time to time.ALSO READ:Kunal Maniar’s inspired design for this garden fuses nature with decor... https://www.architecturaldigest.in/content/asian-paints-awakening-colour-of-the-year-indoor-plants/

Valentine's Day roses in short supply due to COVID-19: floral industry – Surrey Now-Leader - Surrey Now-Leader
Sunday, February 28, 2021Ontario residents looking to buy Valentine’s Day flowers for their sweethearts may have to branch out from the classic rose bouquet, or consider celebrating on another day, as the COVID-19 pandemic affects floral supply chains, some in the industry say.The health crisis caused many local and international farms to cut flower production or shut down altogether last year, and while operations have largely resumed, supply is still lagging, according to some in the industry.Other factors, such as transportation, are also contributing to the shortage, they say, with a drop in commercial flights and truck shipments that are typically used to haul flowers from South America to Canada via Miami.Demand for flowers has been high throughout the pandemic, however, likely spurred by people’s desire to show affection despite social distancing and to brighten up homes during lockdowns, said Glenn Hofland, owner of the flower wholesaler Hofland, which supplies florists across the country.It’s particul... https://www.surreynowleader.com/trending-now/valentines-day-roses-in-short-supply-due-to-covid-19-floral-industry/
