Arranging Living Flowers

Arrangements - Arranging living flowers, like cut-flower arrangement, is always a matter of personal taste — there are no rules or restrictions except those imposed by the space available, and the needs of the particular plants you want to use.

  


You can literally fill a room with plants — or you can satisfy your urge for an indoor garden by growing a minia­ture jungle in a terrarium.

Every plant has its preferences as to light, humidity, soil, etc. These are the first factors to take into consideration before you decide what plants or seeds to buy.

Analyze the space you plan to utilize. Is it a north window? Do you want a spot of green on the mantelpiece? On an occasional table? In the kitchen? The home you give your plants determines to a great extent which of the many varieties you can use.

Some plants need a good deal of direct sunlight, while others will grow and sometimes prosper for years in a spot that is never exposed to direct rays.
