Hellobee Boards

my mom does at her house (or she cuts some from her gardens) & i love it! so cheerful =) i don't because my cat is obsessed with flowers & rips them apart to eat them =/ he's been enjoying the flowers other ppl have sent recently though!

I wish. We just moved and there's a great florist on the corner of our block. When we bring flowers in the house, our cats eat them and puke, eat them and puke...it goes on until we finally throw the flowers out or they're completely eaten and puked onto the floor, whichever one comes first.

I'm with @mrs. bird: and @mrsjazz: My cat thinks any flowers we bring into the house are a delicious snack bar for her. We can put them on the mantle to keep them away from her, but anywhere else is fair game.

I wish, I have the cat issue too!

When i'm having guests over or if DH brings them home for me

I love to get them, but I don't have them all the time. In the summer I cut them from my flower beds.

Yeah sometimes. Only if its under $5.00 and I know they will last for awhile. Just makes me smile when I walk in my house! I also plant alot outside- so in the summer i use those blooms to brighten things up!

@mrsjazz: that's what my cat does! we've been getting a lot of sympathy flowers, but i think if people knew what was happening with them, they'd just not send them! haha. 'so sorry for your loss. please accept this cat vomit as a token of my sympathy!' not so much =D

@mrs. bird: this is why i send fruit baskets. Foot FTW

I looove flowers! I use to keep them in my house until DH's grandpa brought some over for me and umm the next day we had a fly infestation (ewwww). It was a sweet gesture! Thank god for pest control with a warranty.

I love having fresh flowers... hate cleaning them up!

I do; i generally buy them every 2 weeks. Just at the grocery store, or, if i remember, the guy on the corner downtown who sells HUGE bouquets for $5/$10/$20

@Coco Bee: ditto would love to but can't bear to spend the money.
In our new house i would love to at least do that when we have company over.
@mrsjyw: def plan to plant cutting flowers at the new house!!

I love having fresh flowers around. At my grocery store they mark down a lot of the flower arrangements when they start getting a little wilty. Some of them are pretty sad looking, but others look just fine! Last week I got a nice bunch of fall mums for $2.50 (marked down from $12). Score! I will not spend more than $5 on a bouquet though.
