On Saturday I was presented with a bouquet - a special little gathering of flowers from my own allotment. Not being able to go here myself is frustrating so having them brought back to me was warming. I'd even go as far as to say 'exciting'. I've not participated in 'In A Vase on Monday' before. Apart from daffodils, I'm not a very flowers-in-a-vase person. I enjoy having flowers in the house but rarely get round to 'doing' them - unless they arrive as a gift, which doesn't happen very often! So this, friends, is an event. I want to record it.
Here, in a little watering can teapot I was given at Christmas are:
Wild marjoram
Ivy leaved toad-flax
Horse Tails (often called Mare's Tails)
Chives
A Welsh poppy that hasn't grown very big
Thyme
Dianthus - otherwise known as 'Pinks'.
