Jane does this count?????
I have a secret to confess
but before I tell
Jane you must promise you will still speak to me
OK
promise?
I have terrible trouble picking flowers or pruning shrubs
the reason I have trouble is...
I am not totally convinced that it is painless
to the said shrub or flower!!!!!
What if the plant is soundlessly screaming
as I have at it with the secateurs?
Dumb...I know....really dumb!
but every time I go to cut
I get this terrible picture in my head and just can't do it.
AND
that is the reason for my dashing pink paper roses!
and why I enjoy this in my garden
Now to see really beautiful floral arrangements in the home
go to
and just enjoy her utterly charming blog
Goodnight
OMG, I never know what I am going to find when I come to visit.
ReplyDeleteI can't assure you either way about the feelings of said shrubs and flowers.
But if it were so, after my garden clean up yesterday, there are a lot of wounded soldiers out there.
I hope the screaming doesn't keep you awake:)
xo Jane
Don't apologize for your tender heart! And, your yard is lovely!
ReplyDeleteThere is some science that says that there's a change in something-or-other in trees when one is cut down nearby. Someone measure it. I believe it.
ReplyDeleteI think paper indoors and flowers outdoors is just fine. Jane won't mind. That lush bush (tree?) in your yard is beautiful.
ReplyDeleteOh Julienne you are so funny! But I suppose we don't know do we, really? (if it hurts the plant / shrub?!!)... XX
