Bonsai
Here are the three guides to Easy Bonsai Care whether you keep your tree Indoors or Out.

1. SOAK THOROUGHLY (1 - 3 times a week)
2. MIST DAILY
3. BRIGHT INDIRECT SUNLIGHT

If you follow these suggestions, your tree will remain healthy. But the time will come when you'll want to prune the new growth, when you'll want to feed the tree. Perhaps a year or so down the road you'll want to know about root pruning or transplanting.If you would like to learn more about Bonsai, ask your local nursery if they carry books and magazines on Bonsai.

A bit of Flower History
Hand tied bouquet care
These are arranged for you and tied together, and the first rule is not to cut the binding string. It doesn't harm the flowers and it keeps the look of the bouquet.
If it's been delivered aqua packed (i.e. there's a bubble of water around the stems) hold the bouquet over a sink and cut the bottom off the film. This method of delivery is ideal for flowers which do not travel well or cannot withstand a lack of nourishment.
Many hand-tied bouquets feature stems which are open and flat. Gently lay the bouquet on the side and cut the stems at a 45 degree angle.
Select a vase with a neck wide enough to accommodate the bouquet and fill it with cold, clean water. Add a sachet of cut flower food and stir until dissolved. Place the hand tied bouquet in the vase taking care not to knock the flower heads.
Check the water level in the vase daily and top up if necessary. Change the water as often as you can , re-cutting the stems at the same time.Spray the arrangement with a gentle mist of water daily.
