Be sure to keep your legs elevated while you browse. Your flowers are lovely. With all our overcast days, I am getting out of the mood to take care of weeds.

It has has been a great year for my perennials too. But an interesting phenomenon.... Our yard has what is called "snow fungus" diagnosed by a landscaper. Most of the yard is struggling to be totally green. Our above normal rainy June helped the fungus to grow.

I was going to suggest that maybe dye was put in the water but see other comments of it being natural. I remember a few years ago a street seller had bunches of flowers in bizarre looking colours - they said it was food dye in the water so not harmful. Your bouquet is beautiful - I hope they last a long time for you to enjoy :)Lesley Gilberthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12391675183992422658noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4049103935243328127.post-87807353404829557722018-07-23T05:29:20.618-05:002018-07-23T05:29:20.618-05:00There is a beautiful lavender rose called Angel Fa...There is a beautiful lavender rose called Angel Face.
