DO learn how to whip up a terrarium
Giving flowers can be dangerous; how can you know which flowers to send when it’s still early days? Red roses mean ‘love’ and yellow ones ‘friendship’, but we don’t think there’s an official flower for ‘you’ll do until I find someone better’ (orange ones, maybe?) Happily, lovely London florist Leafage sells terrarium-making kits so that you can create your own tiny plant-filled kingdoms. And there’s not a lot you can read into something that’s so transparent.
