Instructions
Make room for the flowers by cutting out some of the vines in the wreath in the middle.

Remove flowers from their plastic nursery pot.
Trim the bottom and gently shake out any excess soil.

Notes
When choosing flowers consider the type of sun they will receive where ever you hang the wreath. These violas like shade and should grow well on my front door.
