Yes. I don't know why I didn't think of it. Which makes me wonder why we don't all do it. I mean, Christianity originated in the same place and I'm sure there were plenty of places where there were no cut flowers. As I understand it FTD is a relatively recent phenomenon. :-) Thanks for clearing up the mystery though. I was going to reply to your other post, but I deleted it under the impression that you were going to say more on the subject. I was wrong. Sorry. I can't remember what you said now. :-( AndreA
