Yes, it's a great place to live! couldn't imagine being anywhere else.
Anyway, I've done the deed. Got up early this morning and went to the market. Ordered a shed load of flowers including 'The Roses'. Finally decided on 'Naranja and 'Sunbeam'. Fingers crossed I haven't messed up.
This is a great site. Now I know where to come when I need to let off some steam.
Maybe you could help me out with something else. I need some 'Hot Pink' flowers, something other than, carnations and Gerbs.

Orchids would be lovely but not sure if budget can stretch. I have ordered some alstro as it's makes for quite a good filler as well. Didn't think about another rose, but why not!
Thank you.

Thanks Alby! Willl be going to Convent on Wednesday so hopefully will find some gorg stuff.
Does anyone do any contracts? I've just started doing a couple of local restaurants. Flowers look great for the first few days but by the end of the week the heats got to them. I normally pop in mid-week and change a few but this dips into my profit. What can I do to make them last a little longer?
