Winter has arrived. Two months late but today it is snowing and has been all day. I am happy to see precipitation after two months of winter drought but it is hard to accept that I must dig out spiked boots and a hat to walk the dogs. I think I may not go out at all today.
Any hope of green has been covered and I admit to being truly stumped today for what I might use for in a vase. The forced hyacinths are over and my one remaining Hippeastrum is not a show stopper. Hoping for Pussy Willow I remembered these dried ‘Bunny Tails’ , Lagurus ovatus hanging with a few other dried flowers in the greenhouse. So here they are in an old ‘pork pie’ ink pot. ‘Pork pie because they have the shape of an English pork pie. This is the tallest one I have at three inches. Most are shorter.
After taking a close up I thought the image rather reflected the snowy day outside.
Thank you Cathy of ‘Rambling In the Garden’ for Monday inspirations.
