Daffodils make such a lovely houseguest

Daffodils heralding spring!

Daffodils come in so many varieties it is sometimes hard to choose a favorite.  Most people think of the standard yellow, which of course warms our hearts with hopes of sunshine.  But take a look at this lovely little bouquet.  You'll see the big yellow trumpets.  Also included are white daffodils with a softer yellow cup or center.  Look on top, and you'll see one of my favorites - a white with stunning orange center.  Notice I have added some other spring favorites.  Forsythia always brightens up a room.  Just a few sprigs adds a bit of airiness to the bunch. Look carefully and you will see the amazingly gorgeous buds of our star magnolia, another one I LOVE to incorporate.  They are the soft pink buds at the very top of the bouquet and slightly lower and to the right.  Love this look!


Warmer weather means Spring!!!

While most of you have been inside, lamenting the cool weather, the early flowers have been doing what they do best!  Hellebores and andromeda make for dramatic early spring bouquets.
