Flowers

Here is an environmental thought for the day:

Why do we always insist on giving cut flowers instead of potted plants for gifts? I would much prefer to get a potted plant then a bouquet of cut flowers. The potted plant will last much longer (assuming you remember to water it!) and can brings weeks, months, or years of joy to someone, rather than 5 or 6 days worth. Think of Valentines Day and how many roses are cut to be sold and never end up in anyones house. Was that worth it? I don't think so. Those are just my thoughts on flowers! Let me know if you don't agree!!!
