There is a delightful meme, called ‘In a Vase Monday’ hosted by Cathy at Rambling in the Garden. I joined in a few times last year but not regular basis. I remembered it today after torrential rain this morning and a garden damage inspection, when it cleared and the sun came out.
My Monday vase is my favorite jug, and should you look back on old posts you may well see it a lot. It’s just the right depth for those flowers that have had to be pruned due to damage of one sort or another. Also, the raised lip keeps the heads standing straight.
It consists of two stems of Veronica, a couple of Philadelphus (mock orange), two white Nigella (Love in a Mist), a stem of Astrantia, white Hydrangea ear, a piece of Penstemon (Garnet) and last but not least a Joie de Vivre rose bud. Surprising what you can get into a small vase.
