Working Out: Celebrate National Gardening Exercise Day at Our Outdoor Garden Center

This Saturday is the perfect day to visit our outdoor garden center. Well, every day is actually but, by doing so on June 6th, you’ll be taking part in National Gardening Exercise Day. Each year, this special day is celebrated on June 6th throughout the United States. While at our outdoor garden center, you can pick up all types of plants, blooming plants, hanging baskets, dish and basket gardens, gardening supplies and more. Then, you can go home and start a healthy exercise routine that also beautifies your yard and the Denver area. Gardening helps provide exercise to people of all ages, encouraging regular movement that stretches muscles and even gets in some cardio-vascular care between the lifting, wheelbarrowing, climbing, pulling, and digging. You can even go help out at a community garden or start your own if you don’t have space where you live or work. This provides a way to bring a neighborhood closer

How to Keep Flowers Fresh Longer in a Vase

We all wish flowers would last forever, but unfortunately once we cut them and remove them from their natural environment, they begin to die. Even in nature, flowers eventually die and then are replaced with new blooms. However, if you have flowers in a vase, there are some ways that you can keep them fresh longer so you can enjoy them for the longest time possible. These ideas may seem weird but they have been proven to work alongside regularly re-trimming the stems and adding fresh water: Add ¼ cup of soda to flower water. There is sugar in the soda that helps the blooms last longer. Typically, it is best to use a clear soda. It’s just more attractive than pouring dark soda in the water as the water will then look dirty. Spray your flower arrangement with hairspray on the underside of the petals and leaves. Just like hair, it keeps everything lifted and
