Yes Mark is something cultural, but not everybody in Argentina, in some places we beleave that when you cut a flower you are hurting the plant, so we prefered potted flowers and we can plant them in our gardens, but it's not everywhere some places are like this, is the same with garbage, when we go to city and see people throwing garbage on the street we get horrified....:D.

Here, lilies are reguarded as funeral flowers. Very similar to the callas apparently. I like the idea of sending a flower to a lady at a restaurant or wherever. Very romantic. Why would cut flowers possibly offend you? Is it a cultural thing? Would a potted flower be more appropriate? I am a little confused about this
