“My arranger” has brought out all of her Ikebana training to help me put together flowers and foliage from our garden for this week’s offering for In a Vase on Monday.
The foliage is from an unnamed hosta, Deutzia gracilis ‘Chardonnay Pearls,’ and Aucuba japonica ‘Mr. Goldstrike.’ The flowers are Leucanthemum x superbum ‘Becky,’ Encore azalea ‘Autumn Moonlight,’ and lantana. The container is a 7″ Japanese Kenzan flower arranger.
The gold of the lantana echoes the center of the Becky daisies. The three white stones provide balance.
Let me recommend that you click on In a Vase on Monday to visit the delightful postings of Cathy, the originator of this meme. I do hope she will not be disappointed by this offering.
Spectacular!

John – I have to apologise. For some reason I have not been alerted to the fact that you have been posting a vase on Monday although you have linked from your post. Perhaps you need to ensure you link to the specific vase post and not just the blog? And a comment on mine with a link to yours would bring more people to look at yours too. I must have missed lots of vases – so sorry! 😦

Thanks, Cathy. This is a wonderful meme, and I am enjoying both the search for flowers in bloom and watching my wife help me with the arranging each week. I am still learning WordPress, but I now know what/how to include in my comments.
