Too many roses...
 

Hello,

Our rose garden has way too many roses. Any ideas on what I can do with them
once I cut them. I was hoping for some project to share/involve the kids.

Thanks
David

I assume that you mean that you have way too many blooms. If that's
the case, then you might invite someone from a local nursing home or
hospital to come and do a supervised cutting. Have the kids help out
and then send them to the facility to help pass them out and/or make
arrangements.

Just one quick idea off the top of my head.

I can only wish for your "problem" chuckle.

Maybe you could coordinate a Mother's Day project with the kids for a local
seniors home or something? Bet they would love to have some 'blooms' for
such an occasion. Or why not have a 'blooms' sale like we did as kids with
Lemonade stands. They could charge $1.00 a bloom or something. At the
least it would keep them busy for an afternoon.

Let us know what you end up doing?

I bring my flowers to our local high school and give them to the offices where
the parents and staff can enjoy them -- such as the main office, the attendance
office, the nurse's office. etc Many have commented to the staff ( not to me
) that they felt welcome to the school because of the flowers.

One person I heard about brings her flowers to the local post office when she
can.

What about seniors? The lobby of the local senior housing
developnment. Your post office, local library, pre-school, bank, just
about everyone would love to have a bouquet. I buy crackleglass vases
at the dollar store for this purpose. What kills me is that they love
them so much they keep them until they are dog ugly. It's touching.
