This week's little Monday vase celebrates Christmas as well as being a nod to the recent winter solstice. As we turn to the light there will be more and more flowers to pick so certainly a time to rejoice. In my vase are :
- Cornus or dogwood 'Anny's Winter Orange' stems.
- A couple of nameless violas.
- A sprig or two of winter flowering jasmine whose Latin name eludes me just now.
- A flower of the appropriately named galanthus or snowdrop 'Three Ships' - the flowers of which have certainly sailed in well on time this year.
A big thank you as always to the lovely Cathy over at 'Rambling In The Garden', who entertains us each and every Monday, whatever the season and on special days too. Wishing Cathy and all my blogging friends a most Merry Christmas and happy gardening in the new year ❄️ 🤶🎄🌱❤️
Christmas flowers. I love the abundance of your garden for this lovely vase. merry Christmas!
ReplyDeleteThank you Donna. Hope that you had a good Christmas.
DeleteA sweet little vase to celebrate Christmas. Enjoy the day, Anna!
ReplyDeleteThanks Kris. It already seems like a long time ago 😂
DeleteIt shows how precious winter colour is, and these little offerings made a big impact - especially in the little memory vase of yours. I bought Anny's Winter Orange after seeing yours, but it is probably too little to cut yet. Three Ships haven't sailed in here for a few years and I have been looking out for a replacement but have not seen any yet
ReplyDeleteThanks for your kind words Cathy. I wonder where your 'Three Ships' sailed away to 🤔
DeleteCharming. Your hand-painted vase caught my eye immediately. Merry Christmas Anna!
ReplyDeleteIt's one of my favourite vases Susie even though it's so small. I hope that you had a good Christmas.
DeleteVery very beautiful vase and flowers. Spring-time is coming ...
ReplyDeleteThank you Anna. Spring still seems a long way off especially on a dull grey and wet day like today but isn't really so far away 😂
DeleteSnowdrops all ready!
ReplyDeleteThat’s a very pretty little arrangement, Anna. Your hand-painted vase is lovely, and something to be treasured.
