Sunflowers just can't get enough sun. Their heads follow the direction of the sun throughout the day. So, Sunflowers are grown in Cameron Highlands, where the warm sun shines year-round producing big, showy sunflowers. Sunflowers have naturally arched necks and look best in a tall narrow vase. Cut the flowers so there is only a few inches of stem that shows above the rim of the vase. 1) Cut 1 inch off the stems and remove leaves that fall below the water line. 2) Fill vase with water and add 1 packet of flower food. 3) Re-cut stems, change water and add second packet of flower food on day 3. 4) Keep your Sunflowers away from direct sunlight, heat and drafts. 5) Remove spent leaves to keep bouquet looking fresh longer. |

Did you know that, in general, white and pale flowers are particularly strongly scented? Think oriental lilies, tuberose, tazetta and narcissi. Freesia are an exception to this - darker red and pink varieties have the strongest scent. |
