I used to grow flowers to give to an ex of mine. She and her mum always complimented that they last so long. When she found out I didn't buy them she didn't like them any more lol.
Wow, that would make me love them even more! I've been wanting to grow more flowers for ages. Extended family are currently growing waratahs in the backyard and they are gorgeous.
Ex for a reason lol
Hahaha Jesus Christ man.
What? Growing flowers is loads more effort than just buying them.
If I pay $60 for a bunch of flowers, that's something like 1-2 hours work. Growing them? No idea how long that takes, but I bet it's longer than that.
