Flowerless Winter Lemonade

As we await the coming of the spring my heart aches for flowers.  If my hands are not arranging, I am not entirely whole.  Today I made lemonade.  My decades old camellia trees are producing in abundance.  I clipped some branches of buds and blooms, headed over to the gardenia bush for some added textural interest, and life just got a little bit sweeter in the Smith cottage. 

Foraging on your property for branches of interest, or blooming Camellias in the winter is a great way to cheer things up.  Try it and send along your photos, I'd love to see what you come up with.

Peace, Love and Flowers, Ya'll,
