Organic Flowers, Natural Beauty And Habitat For Pollinators
By: Gen Wright
Organic flowers have risen in popularity largely due to Fair Trade practices that promote small farms in other countries growing organic produce or fruit to earn their own income. The typical bouquet that you would have delivered by a florist or one that you pick up in the supermarket has been grown in a foreign country where the crops are sprayed with large amounts of herbicides, pesticides and chemical fertilizers exempt from U.S. regulations.
The result is that many of the workers have suffered terrifying illness to the extent that their very DNA has been altered permanently and their immune systems no longer function adequately. There are also links to various forms of cancer associated with repeated exposure to these toxins. Remember that the next time you lean in close to those flowers and take a deep breath and inhale,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]!
It sounds preposterous I know, but some of these same chemicals are used right here in the United Stated on our own crops, just in smaller doses. Think of it as a slow bullet. One such chemical is Glyphospate. It is marketed in the United States under the brand name Round Up. Have you read the warnings on the label? It is there for your protection, that alone should be a warning to you. This chemical is designed to kill, the only problem is that is continues to do so long after the weed is dead.
The United States is facing a crisis and apiarists have been aware of this growing problem for years now. Our honey bee population, butterflies and even hummingbirds have been decimated. Now there is new evidence that the use of cell phones disrupts the bees innate navigational system and they die before ever finding their way back to the hive, leaving the queen and eggs abandoned. It is so common now that is has been termed Colony Collapse Disorder (CCD). Strange as it seems parasites and other wildlife that normally raid honey,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], after a colony dies refuse to go anywhere near the abandoned hives. Leave the cell phone in the house may be god advice.
An estimated 60 per cent of its commercial bee population has been lost on the West Coast of The United States and on the East Coast it is estimated that 70 per cent are gone. Many can recall Albert Einstein saying that if the honey bee disappeared man would die off in four years. I really don't want to test his theory considering his track record. Do you? Now is a good time to start your own organic flower garden to provide a natural and safe habitat for nature's pollinators. You can do your part by maintaining organic flower beds for bees, hummingbirds and butterflies. There are a wide variety of flowers that you can choose from that bees find irresistible.
Here is but a partial list of the best known varieties. Asters, Buttercups Catnip, Clover, Comfrey,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Daffodil, Fennel, Geranium, Goldenrod,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Hollyhock, Lavender, Marigolds, Marjoram, Mint, Rose, Rosemary, Sage, Strawberry, Sunflower, Thyme and Zinnias. This should give you a few possibilities to think about.
You will be helping to preserve and reclaim your portion of the environment while your plants absorb carbon dioxide and exhale oxygen. Did you know it is an old practice for greenhouses to vent exhaust from the heating units into the greenhouse? Plants need carbon dioxide to live and raised levels actually increase plant growth. Growing your own organic flowers is a lot of fun and there is a a natural calming sense when you are outside tending to your flowers. You can start with a simple container and progress to a raised bed garden as space and experience permit.
