FLOWERS & ALLERGIES

When you or your
guests suffer from hay fever, react to roses or succumb to various
other floral displays don’t exclude the guest with
these problems, most are prepared-- but if all else fails and they
are having a strong reaction to the table display encourage the removal
of the particular blossom or the entire centerpiece for their comfort.
Some flowers are better for your bouquets or
boutonnières.
Pollen free chrysanthemums, asters and dahlias, double flowered baby’s
breath, Cecil Bruner and Banksias roses, hydrangeas, double tuberous
begonias have little or no pollen. Remove the anthers ahead from lilies
and calla lilies. Use camellias, orchids, pots of viola, pansies and
inpatients, bougainvillea for tables. If a lawn event, you will want
to mow two to three days ahead of the event and use a grass catcher.
