Why impatiens flowers are drying?
Maybe because it is January? They are an annual. They die when it gets cold.

YES! Selena is far-sighted and she wears contacts because she prefer them rather than to be seen wearing glasses :P
No
What do you call a plant without a flower?
flowering plants are part of a large group called angiosperms. They are the only (and most recently evolved group) to have flowers.
Nonflowering plants are gymnosperms, seedless vascular plants (like ferns) and bryophytes.
Are long stemmed roses better?
Most roses available today in stores are "long stemmed" roses.
Essentially, to answer your question I would need to know the answer to this: "are they better for what?".
If you plan to make an arrangement, and cut the stems down, then no, long stemmed roses are not necessary.
If however you have a long-necked elegant vase to put your cut roses in then you are definitely looking for long stemmed roses.
Most varieties sold in stores have been genetically modified so that they stand better over time in water. Longer does not necessarily mean better- just more expensive.
What does a Floral Shop offers?
A floral shop offers flowers and other flower-related products. "Floral" means design of flowers. The products sold between shop-to-shop will differ but many floral shops also offer gardening tools.
Does sugar prolong the life of the cut flowers?
Yes, the sugar will help the flower survive, or pour some clear lemonade into the vase that will also help the life of flowers, this is a trick of the flower trade.
You will need wire that matches the greens that your are using in your wreath. you can find this at any craft store. then obviously your flowers, many leafy. i wouldn't make the entire thing from roses with no green, and they sell these "wreath skeletons" that are wire frames for you to attach and tie your flowers to. once you have that, just arange around the skeleton and tie the flowers and leaves with the wire. peice of cake!
Where can you buy the readymade wire to make a Christmas wreath???
How do you properly word an invitation for no gifts or flower arrangements?
(The family) cordially invites you to this whatever but/and requests that money be donated to (charity of your choice) in lue of gifts or flower arrangments. It normal to offer the guest someway to make a token gesture perhaps to charity, even if the gesture is a poem/wishes/memories on a card to hang on a tree or something non-monitary like that. People want to do something in return for the invitation otherwise they arn't being polite! It works both ways unfortunatly. Or just tag - "Close family flowers and gifts only." At the end of the invite and inform your close family what you mean!
Well, not ALL men stop the romance that soon into a relationship but many do. First of all, to stick up for the guys here, its hard to keep up that kind of intensity for very long. Maybe he's saving the "I love yous" and flowers for special occasions so they mean more. Just because someone doesn't buy you flowers doesn't mean they don't love you.
On the other side of this, romance and dating are all about the chase. Once he has you, he doesn't have to try as hard. Some men no longer try at all. I lived with someone for a long time and I can tell you that your man has it made. He has a wife without having the responsibilities of being a husband. You probably cook and clean and worship the ground he wallks on and he treats you like a roomate. I went through the same thing.
Men aren't mind readers (as much as we wish they were). You need to tell him you miss the romance. Secondly, if YOU are keeping up the same intensity of when you were dating (telling him you love him every five minutes, hanging all over him and not allowing him to lift a finger with housework, etc.) STOP IT. You're not really giving him a reason to romance you. You're giving him every reason to not have to try.

AnswerBecause the thrill is gone. The honeymoonperiod of the relationship is over. You no longer have to try. You no longer have to show her your best side.Men no longer have to work to get our affection once we put out. It is sad, that once you have done the deed, men take us as a sure thing, a given, but we as women don't like to be thought like that.
We women should also ask ourselves "how often are my man and I having sex?" After being with my husband for 12.5 yrs and 2 kids later, the sex life was dying. The I love you's and flowers stopped coming. I decided to put in an extra effort to spice up the sex and "offered" the sex more times in a week than he was used to too. Let me tell you ladies, the first week I "tested" this theory, the flowers and I love you's were coming, even via text messages during work hours. My husband hasn't told me he loved me in years. The feeling we have is like we are dating again and we both get we want. I get the affection, I love you's and flowers and he gets more sex! Try it, you can't lose.
no i don't think she does. she mentioned in an interview that she'll possibly like to play piano for one of her ballads, but they mentioned in the article that she's only learning just now. she's been really busy this year with Wizards of Waverly Place, her second album, and shooting ramona & beezus as well as Monte Carlo so she probably won't have the time to learn the piano. plus, she said that she wanted to play guitar and drums in concerts and she hasn't done that so far so she's probably just saying it to sound good (plus all her friends play piano like Demi and Nick so she probably just wants to fit in)

The Brahms, Schubert and Beethoven symphonies are very lyrical in nature, easy on the ears. The Beethoven 6th is probably the most melodic, the 5th is a bit darker (the classic Da Da Da DAAAAA opening). The Beethoven 9th has the choral finale you've heard a million times (the "Ode to Joy"). Some critics called Brahm's 1st the Beethoven 10th, as he continued that musical school; the Schubert is a lot like the Brahms.
The Rachmaninov, Copland, Tchaikovsky and Dvorak are "noisier" with more brass and cymbals. They are great pieces for demonstrating your sound system. If you are not paying attention, they will go from zero to thundering in a second and make you jump. If you like percussion, these are the pieces for you. They are not background music.
The Bruckner and Sibelius pieces are best described as "majestic" with horns over strings, generally slower paced, building to gigantic climactic moments. If you like french horns, these are the pieces for you.
The Rachmaninov #2 and Bruckner #7 are heart-stoppingly beautiful, with gorgeous use of strings. If looking for classical background music, Beethoven's 6th is probably your best choice. The others will distract at points when they get going.
If you are surfing for particular movements or highlights from the pieces, check out the following (symphony # and movement #) - Bruckner 7/1; Sibelius 5/3; Beethoven 6/1; Tchaikovsky 4/1; Dvorak 9/1; Copland 2/4; Rachmaninov 2/2&3. Some of the great moments in classical music are in these sections. You can find excerpts on youtube.
Because a red rose represents love what does white rose represent?
A red rose represents passionate love. A white rose represents pure love. White represents purity.
Well that is true but wha about a pink rose? a yellow one? i think u sould know abiut that too if your doing a project on roses like me :). Pink represents tender love, yellow represents the passion of love like a million burning suns.
A pink rose symbolizes gentleness and unconditional love and compassion.
A yellow rose symbolizes joy and happiness.
The stem of a verb is the part of the verb that generally remains consistent. Other letters can be added to the stem to show the number or person of the noun or to show when in time the verb happened.
For example, in the verb look, 'look' is the stem. The stem is the present form, meaning that the stem expresses the verb as happening in the present.
"I look out the window."
If we want to show a different number or person, we add 's' to or remove 's' from the stem of the verb.
"You look out the window."
"Ellen looks out the window."
"Ellen and her friends look out the window."
If we want to show the verb happening at different points in time we add such endings as 'ed' and 'ing'.
"Samuel looked out the window yesterday, but Josh is looking out the window right now."
We can also put verbs such as "will", "was", and "have" before the verb stem to indicate various points in time.
"She will look out the window later."
"Miguel was looking out the window earlier."
"We have looked out the window already."
But beware, for in some verbs the stem changes to indicate various points in time. For example, in the verb 'run'. Notice how the vowel 'u' in run often changes to an 'a'.
"I run today."
"Samuel ran yesterday, but Josh is running now.
"She will run later."
The stem of the verb 'see' is even more inconsistent.
"I see her."
"Samuel saw her yesterday, but Josh is seeing her now."
"We have seen her."
Aside from verbs such as 'run' and 'see', the stem of the verb is consistent. It is what we add to when we want to indicate different number, person, and points in time.
There are actually quite a few different ways to preserve flowers. I have received many arrangements and have dried flowers all over! That is how I prefer to preserve them. I wait until they are at the point I want to preserve them at, then I tie a piece of string to the bottom of the stem and hang it upside down until it is completely dry. This preserves the color too. Don't hang it from the wall though, your flowers will have a flat side).
A great way to quickly dry flowers while preserving both the color and shape of the blooms is to use Silica Gel, as found in Flower Drying Crystals. These are easy to use, simply place the flowers and Silica Gel in an airtight container. I have used them to dry everything from roses to daisies, wild flowers, to orchids.
Why is the spathe turning green on a peace lily?
Although it could be that your peace lily is not receiving enough water or fertilizer, the most likely cause is that the spathe is simply aging. The spathe is actually a modified leaf and, like most leaves, goes through photosynthesis. After some time, the chlorophyll within the spathe will begin to turn green.
If you do not mind the appearance you may choose to keep the plant as is. Otherwise you may cut the stalk right above the soil line to begin making room for new growth.
