Today's picture/Week one CSA flowers - 2017
And the beauty begins for another year! If you didn't happen to see last year's photos, you may click the label at the bottom of this post - Flower CSA.
I especially love this bouquet in my mother's vase. I have four very special vases and I plan to rotate them. The flower grower changed the way the bouquets are offered. Instead of providing a little metal bucket like last year's orange one, this year she is doing something different:
"The stems will be wrapped in an Eco Fresh Wrap that will keep your stems hydrated and fresh for up to 10 hours! You can then use your vase of choice, unwrap, cut stems to vase length, fluff arrangement, and pop it into fresh water!"
I'm looking forward to seeing these. They were so pretty last year!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Marcie! I love today's arrangement. I must remember each week to ask what the flowers are. I know some of these but not all.
DeleteGosh, I love those white and blue blossoms! And that vase! Gorgeous. I really enjoyed seeing all your arrangements last year. What a treat for you and us!
ReplyDeleteThe whites are mock orange, but not sure about the blues. I love that vase. It was used all my childhood.
DeleteThe flowers are gorgeous, and special in your mum's vase. How lovely flowers each month. Windy Poplars sounds like Anne of Green Gables. Enjoy the summer.
ReplyDeleteThat's where we got the name!! Anne of Windy Poplars was my favorite Anne book!!
DeleteWhat a treat!
ReplyDeleteIt sure is!
DeleteThe flowers are lovely and they are perfect in that vase.
ReplyDeleteI was so hoping you would be doing this again, Nan, and that you would post. The bouquet is beautiful, as is your mother's vase. Very nice. I think the blue flowers are delphinium. I love them, but, have never had luck growing them.
ReplyDeleteI'm so pleased you wanted to see the bouquets again. Vanessa does such lovely work. When you said delphinium, I thought it sounded familiar, and I'll bet you told me last year!! I'll try and remember now. ;<))
DeleteNan, we enjoy the mock orange bushes on our trail at Panola Mountain. They are the most gorgeous flowers! Love your bouquet, as I always do! Thanks for showing us!
ReplyDeleteI have mock orange blooming in the yard right now! Such a lovely plant.
DeleteThis is a very beautiful bouquet - but then of course we do not expect anything else from that particular grower, having admired her bouquets already last year :-)
ReplyDeleteWhat are the eco wraps made of?
If you click on the words, you will get to a page that tells all about the wrap.
DeleteThey do such a lovely job! We're back in Eugene now and I look forward to visiting the Farmer's Market for flowers AND food!
ReplyDeleteI bet it is a great market!
DeleteJust so beautiful.
ReplyDeleteShe grows the best flowers!
