This NEW Variety of Carnation - has everyone buzzing...

The Variety name is "Hypnosis"... and it's living up to it's name... the color variations are so eye catching...

I've enjoyed sharing them... with people... and my favorite comment... "What is that gorgeous flower??"

fun project and a great way to whip up

This one... the Faux Handle Basket is a fun project to create with flowers from the garden... I used some Catoneaster Stems cut from the yard... and some Hydrangea and open fragrant garden roses...

I stuck the Catoneaster stems into each side of the arrangement and then put the flowers in the middle...
Draw up the stems on either side and tie them together with some craft covered wire... and Presto... you have a "handled basket" with the handle created from foliage!

It's a fun project and a great way to whip up a fun centerpiece when you're having guests...
P.S. Flower are fun... especially when you have a book of secret tips and tricks... I love to share!

The Faux Hand Tied Bouquet!

The Faux Hand Tied Bouquet!
Watch the preview here!

While this looks like a European Hand Tied Bouquet...
it's actually an arrangement in foam...

There is a 6" Flower Foam sphere concealed inside this arrangement...
the stems are inserted into the bottom of the sphere... and the flowers are inserted in the top...

Concealing the water supply... so that you can allow this
"Faux" Hand tied to set on a table for a day or longer...P.S. A Concealed Water Supply.... a great way to create
a "Faux Hand Tied" - things aren't always what they seem!

Since Roses grow from cuttings... you can try this...

I think I'm going to try this...

I have a few heirloom rose plants... that are my favorite... I baby them... and worry that I might not always have them around... and I don't know their names or remember where I got them...

Supposedly... Since Roses grow from cuttings... you can try this...  

Simply cut healthy stems, place them in large potatoes, and them bury them 3-4 inches deep in a healthy soil mixture of peet moss and top soil. The potatoes keep the stems moist and help develop the root systems. It's a perfectly simple way to multiply your rose garden ...


P.S. Interesting... I think I might give it a try... Why NOT?

an important part of our eco-system!

Times... they are a changing...

Rather than getting rid of this herbaceous weed... we are now thinking about cultivating them...

As the First "Flower" of summer... it's serves a valuable purpose to feed the bees... and other pollenators...

A close up... of the seeds... with their feather like transportation system... this weed... becomes ART!
P.S. It's the Dandelion... an important part of our eco-system!
