It won't fall apart if the soil is a little bit moist, that's why you should water the plant on the eve of transplantation -- <span style="color: rgb(196, 18, 0);">but not just before it.</span></p><p style="margin: 10px auto; color: rgb(141, 101, 141);"><b><span style="font-size:100%;">Step 2</span><br /></b></p><p> Pull the plant out of the old flowerpot and carefully remove some soil with your hand, trying not to hurt the roots. You may also lightly brush off soil with an old fork . If roots have strongly twisted around the clod, then you can cut dry, small roots with a knife. In case the roots are weakly developed and are seen on the surface of the clod, then you can brush off the soil more thoroughly while at the same time trying not to hurt the roots. Don't touch thick and weakly divaricate roots. If they are rotted, then cut them until you reach the healthy tissue. </p><p><br /></p> <p style="margin: 10px auto; color: rgb(141, 101, 141);"><b><span style="font-size:100%;">Step 3<br /></span></b></p><p style="margin: 10px auto; color: rgb(141, 101, 141);"><span style="color: rgb(49, 5, 0);">Put the plant into the middle of the vase and evenly distribute roots. Keeping the plant in one hand, add some soil with the other hand or a tablespoon for this purpose. Make sure your soil does not pass the root collar (where the stem becomes a root) Firm the soil with a sharp stick, then repeat the operation.</span><br /> <br /> <em style="color: rgb(49, 5, 0);">Attention! Large plants are planted by firmly pressing the soil with your fingers.

Your cake is one of the major attractions of your guests so it needs to be in a place highly visible yet not in the way. 1. The cake table is usually placed whithin the radius of the table of honor. Like this you have accesibility to the cake when it comes to cut it, and your guests can come and see it on their way to say hello to you.<br /><br />2. Place linens on the table in order to provide that soft touch and add elegance to it. Table cloths can be added around the edges draping down in order to cover up the bottom portion of the table. <br /><br />3. Top off your linenes with veil draped in arches around the table. If you want to add that extra something put white x-mas lights and ivy with the veil in order to spruce it up a bit. Once you have your cake table decorate have your cake assembled. <br /><br />4. As an extra touch place ivy all around the cake with veil and rose petals. <br /><br />With a few extra minutes and a few item you can make your cake table the centerpiece that it was meant to be.Designs BY Eva Rosahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11122691596282592236noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5786238904615158832.post-51331042947769802652007-09-08T19:27:00.000-07:002008-06-25T14:01:50.816-07:00Sedalia State Fair GroundsThe State Fair Grounds, is an optimum place to hold an event, the halls are big and filled with possibilities.
