'SAY IT' with flowers   (+16)  [vote for, against]
petal messages

I've found (through personal childhood experiments) that when heat is applied to a flower petal, it drastically changes color.

The idea here is to set up a flower shop where the in-store artist etches personal messages on the petals using a soldering pen.

This not only looks lovely, but also eliminates the need for a card.

When flowers can't say enough [Grimjack, Jun 29 2007]

They sell plants with messages on them at KB Toys nowadays, so... baked.

On the other hand, bun for flowery goodness.
