Tiny Simple Bouquet

It’s easy to think one needs to pick up a flower bouquet to have fresh flowers at home. But even a couple of flower sprigs can brighten up a desk or table if you have a glass basket to fill.

This morning I was ready to dress up my den table where I am doing a lot of writing. I don’t have a lot of plants in bloom inside so I scoured what I do have and found my reliable pink vinca with several blooming sprigs. Those don’t survive winter outside but they are happy inside and reward me with blooms throughout winter.

Then on a garden walk, I found a white chrysanthemum still in bloom and cut off a couple of stalks. Doesn’t take much!
