How to save plants from salt
-
Some de-icers aren't so harsh and may work as well. Try to apply them before the storm.In this season, when ice and snow are likely, pause to think of the flowers of spring. Plants that live near streets and curbs, even turf grass, are in jeopardy from ice-melting chemicals that have become the other "white stuff" of the winter landscape.Plants are damaged in two ways by the chemicals: Salt-laced slush burns evergreen foliage and latent buds. Moreover, salt in the soil can prevent roots from absorbing water and nutrients and affects the long-term health of both evergreen and deciduous plants, including ground covers, spring bulbs, and lawns.Symptoms include distorted and stunted growth, branch dieback, lack of flowering, and leaves with browned margins. Salt contamination also can cause stress that invites diseases and pests - assuming the afflicted plants live.David Yost, a plant specialist at Merrifield Garden Center in Virginia, remembers seeing a hedge of yews killed outright by a salt-contaminated snow pile in the corner of a parking lot."Roots and all," he said.Fortunately, paths can be cleared without maiming your landscape, using alternative products and some care.

Finding a florist
-
The timeline for finding a florist, ideally, is 9 to 12 months prior to your wedding. Many florists get booked up quickly for the summer months, although most would still try to accommodate you - possibly with newly hired staff which might make your flower arrangements second rate.
We highly recommend getting recommendations from other brides in your area. Other resources to find florsits include the yellow pages and various on-line resources like Google. Trimming down the list should be relatively easy based on initial impressions.

Getting Started with Wedding Flowers
-
Flowers are a part of every wedding, and having a beautiful bouquet is a given in every bride's fantasy wedding. Settling for just any old floral arrangement isn't going to cut it. Before even finding a florist, you must consider the kind of wedding you want. Are you planning something simple where a simple, beautiful arrangement of freshly cut flowers would be appropriate, or are you planning a formal wedding which would require a more formal bouquet and accompanying arrangments?
