   Got carried away while visiting a floral wholesaler. Probably due to our fake spring. |

| Costco has reasonably priced dahlias, hosta, bleeding heart bulbs. No fancy varieties, however. |

| At Timonium Home and Garden Show, whole lotta home, very little garden. Former White House florist Laura Dowling gave an interesting talk on floral arranging. Psst: She was not escorted from the building. |

| Was that gourd painted, or are those dots natural? |

| Muddy, I think it's a painted sculpture. Look closely for black wire keeping people away. I think the thing is ten feet tall ..come into the peace of wild things..-Wendell Berry Life is a buffet (anon) |

| Muddy, Sally is right. The gourd is a garden folly, part of the Hirshhorn Museum exhibit, "Yayoi Kusama: Infinity Mirrors." |

| Gerris, those are lovely flowers! Sally and Lisa, thanks for clarifying; I didn't open the photo thumbnail. |

| Inspired by former White House florist Laura Dowling, I tried my hand at a few artisanal endeavors. Yeow! Results would not pass muster at Senior Arts and Crafts Show at our neighborhood rec center. After playing with eucalyptus, my hands smell nice.  |

| Pretty, Lisa! |

It gets even worse.  |

Respectfully, Lisa, something may have been lost in translation there, with the eucalyptus vases  ..come into the peace of wild things..-Wendell Berry Life is a buffet (anon) |

 I think the eucalyptus would look better inside the vase.Your usual floral arrangements are beautiful, Lisa....I never saw anything to improve on! |

| During her lecture, Laura Dowling showed off her eucalyptus vase and it looked quite clever. I'm just a clod with handicrafts. |
Name: Susan Vienna, VA (Zone 7a) Muddy1 Mar 8, 2017 8:55 PM CST |
| I looked at some of her creations online...they're interesting, but I think all the stuff she puts on vases detracts from the flowers. |
