Flower of the Day - Snowdrop (or Snowflake)

Message - be yourself, be natural & have fun

Green is the colour of nature and the symbol for sustainability, conservation and recycling.  Those who have a talent for gardening are said to have "green thumbs" or "green fingers".

Some ways to be more green could be:

• removing invasive plants and weeds from your garden
• enjoying locally grown seasonal produce instead of imported items
• selecting organic fruit, vegetables, grains and packaged foods where possible
• remembering to use a pretty shopping bag instead of flimsy plastic bags
• choosing products with less packaging
• using a beautiful cup instead of disposable cups
• avoiding bringing unnecessary plastic items into the home
• walking instead of driving short distances
• buying a beautiful vintage item instead of a cheaply made new one
