Upward and Onward!

So, after fifteen plus years of teaching and volunteering at Longwood Gardens, the Flower Lady was banned because she didn't take the jab during the Late Great Hysteria. But, with pluck and perseverance, the Flower Lady has come back stronger than ever in venues new and old, teaching more classes and reaching more people than ever. As we all knew she would. And I am very proud of her!

All references to Longwood Gardens, also known here as "The World's Foremost Display Gardens," are being removed from this site. This is by the decision of the blog owner, me.

Loaded up, ready for action!

August!

 


For several years now we've featured a picture of our kitchen sink shelf every August. And it's August! The Flower Lady made a "flower" out of yellow gingko leaves, there on the right.

Here's a shot of The Flower Lady setting up a demo outdoors at a country club, first live one in a long while, back in June. The theme was "A Fourth of July Party."

 Finally got a picture of a hummingbird with my cell phone.

The Flower Lady did a Garden Club demo in September and here's the lineup of some of the arrangements she created. A good time was had by all! 

Back in May, the FL led a class in making a "fresh-to-dry" wreath. Here it was in June:

 And here we have November:


And, in case you were wondering where I've been, I've been clearing this from the backyard with my trusty axe and bowsaw, thanks for asking.


Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!
