Apt gifts for International Plant Appreciation Day

April 6th, 2009

In the previous blog, we found out how imparting a ‘green’ hue can make a perfect gifting. The idea is to add natural touch to the indoor environ so that your friend or colleague feels fresh and rejuvenated at home or office.

This indeed makes a great gift! To make your task easier, we suggested you a few nurseries that are now innovating to meet your demands. There is ample choice to enhance the green quotient. Indeed is a wide choice is available when it comes to your ‘gift a plant’ plan for fortifying personal and professional relationships.

In fact, this will be a perfect idea since the International Plant Appreciation Day is not far away. Incidentally, it falls on April 13 every year. In this blog, we try to acquaint you with interesting plant types that sure can be considered for gifting.

• Consider annuals, biennials, bulbous plants, cacti and bonsai
• Think of succulents, climbers, ferns and creepers
• Give a thought to grasses and bamboos, palms and cycads
• Why not think of seasonal flowers’ hanging baskets?
• You can try out medicinal plants, helpful herbs and spices for their immense utility value.

There’s so many options for selecting indoor & outdoor plants! Also, as we advised last time, landscaping will help in accentuating the plants. Seeking help of a landscape consultant is a good idea to understand how to do it. Do tell your gift recipient about this. 

Flowering shrubs flower almost right through the year so they are pleasing to look at; they are bushy in shape and size. The fabulous flowering shrubs can provide for a long-lasting and eye-catching framework in any interior design. They come in a wide array of foliage, flowers and form. They are perfect for bringing natural joy. Among the popular varieties are Ixora, Pentas, Hibiscus, Mosanda and Lantana.

Tips for Buying a Perfume for Gifting

July 7th, 2008

Perfume

When buying a perfume take lots of breaks. Ideally, begin with lighter scents, so your nose will not get overpowered by the harsh scent early on.Perfume

After being exposed to stimuli, our olfactory senses shut down to continuing aromas or odors. Sensors can be recalled by ‘palate cleansing’, or just by taking a break.

If you are looking for something very rich and heady, test a couple of fragrances, then wander off for a cup of coffee, and return in half an hour or so to try a couple more.

Ralph Lauren Polo SportCarefully read the perfume information before you actually buy. You may sometimes find lighter scents just by reading the details on the label. Packaging is often distinctly colored to reflect the overall ‘tone’ of the fragrance. You will mostly get rich, complex ones in deep reds or browns, light florals in pastel colors and fruity scents in bright packages. It is not a norm, though! Dunhill Desire Blue

Fragrance boutiques specializing in scented oils often have saucers of coffee beans put around so you can draw a little more out of your ‘scent sensors’. Sniffing the coffee beans often refreshes and revives your sense of smell.
