Yummy, yummy, yummy. Do you know how much I love getting flowers?
You have to be fairly intrepid to bring me blossoms in the springtime, because to get to the front door you have to pass through what is a pretty wonderful (and very intensive) flower garden! Just on the weekend, two women stopped by as I was plunking in some faltering aubrietas and said they’d driven across town just to have a look. It’s worth it, I’d say… It’s in the June issue of Fine Gardening magazine (last page), and it’s been there three or four other times too. It was nominated for Vancouver’s Best Front Garden.
Anyhow, the lovely Ms B who won the Giving is Awesome session brought me this pretty bouquet on behalf of her family and the nominator’s family, and I was really touched. Her note said, “Jane, we hope these flowers make you as happy as you have made us. Thank you so very much for the beautiful gift. We will cherish it forever.”
Sweet, huh? Could just about get a girl to weeping…
Here is just one pic:
