MSNBC - Quilt gardens designed to pull in tourists(Flower Gardening)

Elkhart County has 16 of them, comprising about 80,000 blooming annuals, and is marketing its tour of the gardens as a getaway that is both economical â” there is no admission charge â” and friendly to the local economy. I don’t think anyone is suggesting that tourists will come from around the world soley to see our quilt gardens, but Elkhart does attract visitors from around the world for many reasons, and those people will find Elkhart a city made more beautiful by the efforts of our Elkhart County Convention and Visitors Bureau and Park Department. Elkhart has made a concentrated effort for many years to bring new businesses to this area and the Elkhart County Convention and Visitors Bureau has successfully brought thousands tourists to this area for many years. You may not travel, but I have a bus load of people from the Grayslake, Illinois area who will be taking a “day trip” in August to see the Quilt Gardens, Quilt shows and shop the area. read more

(Flower Gardening) Getting flowers? Keep them fresh - Today Technology & Money …

If your flowers come in a vase, check to make sure all the stems are in the water. The majority of women who buy Valentineâs Day flowers give them to their mother (32%), husband/significant other (24%), self (22%), daughter (16%), or friend 14%). Should you get a bunch of cut flowers that are not in water, youâll need to act quickly. These bacteria not only make the water smell, they clog up the stems and reduce the water uptake. If the roses do not arrive in water, you need to treat them like any other flower and cut off about an inch from the bottom of the stems. read more
