Now I'm growing my own it doesn't feel like murder, more like ..... pruning. Bonkers, I know.
How about this; Sweet Rocket (Hesperis matronalis) with seeding parsnip (Pastinaca sativa) . Home grown flower display. Honest, I can't stop looking at it.

Home grown display...
I've never been one for cut flowers. Don't get me wrong, I love receiving flowers and the idea of owning a business like Common Farm Flowers is positively dreamy but I always felt a little sad that flowers had been picked for me, concerned that they'd been murdered.
Now I'm growing my own it doesn't feel like murder, more like ..... pruning. Bonkers, I know.

You'd be hard pressed to find anything more stunning than that. I like to leave my flowers outside, and intact, as the display lasts so much longer. However, I really enjoy cutting flowers to give pleasure to friends and neighbors. I just brought in some gladioli that had bent over in yesterdays wind. That's O.k. with me.
ReplyDeleteStunning - like you say - and they need to be pruned to allow them to continue growing.... what pleasure they bring when they have been picked.

They are glorious! And you're doing the plant a service by pruning. It's very eco-friendly and helping the earth. ;-) Enjoy.
