Sadly, I'm currently too scatter-brained, and when I do have flowers I forget to remove them when they die and get gross.

Years ago, the Celt and I drove down from Amsterdam into France towards Provence flanked on either side of the road by field after field of sunflowers. Utterly magical. The perfect combination, isn't it, the blue-and-white jar with the yellow flowers?Bluehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07652670896513329236noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8044541580633294348.post-26685231568805645982011-07-31T10:55:01.732-04:002011-07-31T10:55:01.732-04:00Hello Reggie:

Sunflowers are to us also the epitome of summer when, out in the countryside, the fields are full of them, acres and acres stretching as far as the eye can see and at their peak at this moment. In another week or so they will start to go over and by late summer will be almost completely brown, their seeds ready for harvesting.<br /><br />Boy's arrangement in the blue and white ginger jar is perfect, a classic combination of blue and yellow which works so well as you have it. Alas, we are without a similar container or we should be tempted to copy!Jane and Lance Hattatthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16831890261259302647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8044541580633294348.post-24619768008360049642011-07-31T10:41:36.740-04:002011-07-31T10:41:36.740-04:00Still waiting for my Midsummer's invitation.
