That might make a difference. Foliage displays can be striking, too!Beth at PlantPostingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10473637655960119672noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3905148744278712684.post-74960341942691959492011-08-10T15:11:48.410-05:002011-08-10T15:11:48.410-05:00Very pretty in pink and yellow.

So few flowers in my garden so make foliage displays instead.Laura Bloomsburyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03163589497828975276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3905148744278712684.post-27839873664338182432011-08-09T22:11:38.376-05:002011-08-09T22:11:38.376-05:00@Christina: Thanks!

I arrange flowers at church and sometimes for friends.<br /><br />@Kathleen: You are too kind! I know what you mean about cutting the flowers, but that's why I plant a lot of them. Plus, cutting flowers like Zinnias encourages them to come back even stronger!<br /><br />@Masha: Thanks! No I usually don't add anything to the water. Sometimes I do, but it doesn't seem to make that much of a difference for me.<br /><br />@Mindy: Thank you! Fortunately, we have a table and plenty of supplies at church so we can really spread things out when we pull the arrangements together.Beth at PlantPostingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10473637655960119672noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3905148744278712684.post-31227061431957213902011-08-09T21:58:52.485-05:002011-08-09T21:58:52.485-05:00@Janet: With all the beautiful flowers you have, I...@Janet: With all the beautiful flowers you have, I'm sure you can make some amazing arrangements!<br /><br />@Bridget: Certainly! There are so many fun ways to arrange flowers. Have fun! Remember: You can always rearrange (I always do) if things don't look quite right.<br /><br />@Amy: Thanks! I'm on the flower committee at church a couple more times this season, so I'll share those arrangements, too.<br /><br />@Sage: Sure! I love to mess around with flowers. I'm certainly not a professional, but it's a wonderful creative outlet!Beth at PlantPostingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10473637655960119672noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3905148744278712684.post-21582403701050908832011-08-09T21:27:03.723-05:002011-08-09T21:27:03.723-05:00What a beautiful bouquet!
