Exotic beauties - anthuriums and delicate orchids are sensitive to cold and draught. They need warm water in small quantities, stems should be regularly cut. Due to this care tropic flowers will bring you delight for a long time. And what should you do if you received an arrangement or a basket of natural flowers?
