Flower campaign

Bloemenbureau Holland runs from November 19 t / m 15 December 2012 a flower campaign in which everything revolves around the favorite flower. A remarkable campaign aimed at women. The central question is: "Hello ma'am, what is your favorite flower?" Aided by five young men (bare-chested)
At www.mooiwatbloemendoen.nl visitors can choose their favorite flower. Who also predicts the  favorite flower of friends or family well, has chance to win a free bouquet.
The idea behind the campaign is that a bouquet been nice, but a bouquet of your favorite flowers is very special and personal. The goal is to raise awareness among women of their personal preference and they prefer to let everyone share via social media.

Here you can watch the campaign: http://youtu.be/se7zuTBtLPA

Removing lily pollen from clothing

Anyone working with lilies or enjoying  them in their home or office wil know the moment when you brush against a big Oriental or LA Hybrid and end up with a bright orange pollen on your clothes.  The first thing that most people   trying to do is brushing the pollen off with the back of there hands, don’t! Take a clear piece of tape (or anything with a sticky side). Gently put the tape on the pollen, use a gently, twisting, padding motion. The pollen came right of and will stuck to the tape. Repeat this until all of the pollen are removed. (source: Flower Talk)
