Care of Cattleya

Cattleya Care a bit more in-depth This month we are going to go into some detail about the care of cattleya orchids. These orchids are probably the easiest to care for and like all plants need water, light and fertilizer. Playing some nice music or talking to them doesn't hurt either. Most of the wild cattleyas grow in rain forests of South America, namely in Argentina, Bolivia, Paraguay and Mexico. They flourish in the Andes from altitudes near sea level to high altitudes of 9 - 10,000 ...

A Chinese Restaurant Offers Delicious Food and Exotic Ambiance

When I was younger, when I thought of a Chinese restaurant, what came first to mind was the decor. They often had such a sense of mystery, with paper lanterns, gilded dragons and woodwork engraved with flowers and hummingbirds. Now, I am more concerned with the quality of the food, but I still love to find a place where both the food and the decorations are top notch. Another favorite thing about Chinese restaurants is that you can find them just about everywhere. From Europe to Canada to ...

How to Kill Poinsettia Plants

Annuals are also very decorative, and provide the best source of flowers for cutting. Their season of bloom is relatively long, as well. Their chief disadvantage is the late date at ...

How To Plant Rose Bushes In Landscaping Your Garden

Fall is the best time for setting out roses, but you can plant in spring. When they arrive from the nursery, plant at once. If they have dried en route, soak the roots and put the tops in a bucket of water before planting. Trim back ...
