Nosegays

Friday, March 25

Do you ever get tired of regular bouquets? They can be time consuming, and also rather formal. How about a nosegay? You've probably made one instinctively before.

A nosegay or posy is a handful of small, good smelling flowers. You've probably walked around your garden and made one without even thinking. If you'd like to fancy it up a bit, tie a pretty ribbon around it. Let it brighten your mood for the rest of the day. Rose vervain is a nice, pinkish lavender flower with a lovely scent. Find it among our perennials.
