Flower Power

Greengable Farms Co.

In the February issue of Better Homes & Gardens, the magazine cited a recent study that found that women--I assume this applies to men, too--who wake up to the sight of fresh blooms enjoyed a rise in happiness, optimism, and energy that lasted the entire day. That tells me that enjoying beautiful flowers in our homes shouldn’t be limited to special occasions—though this might serve as a good reminder that Valentine’s Day is just around the corner.
