    Ohhh, my field of wild flowers would never do that justice. But, I don't care, I love it anyway! We have lots of daisies for now... next will be a pretty wild purple flower... the iris' are starting to fade right now! It goes in groups and I lve the change, every day looks different... every single day it looks different;)

    ,but not too much a fan of red roses.I like roses but more other colours than red.

    EDIT:::As for me I am looking at the single flower,but for you, maybe you are imagining a whole bouquet and what will look best together...maybe that makes a lot of difference in flower preference especially if you are about to design a bouquet.:)

    I guess I shouldn't have said I despise the flower itself, what I couldn't stand is when we had to use daisies and carns and make a compact standard arrangement.

    Those African Lilies were pretty. I don't care much for red roses either. My fave rose is the champagne rose. I adore lilies, especially Casablanca's... but not Tiger Lilies. (that's got more to do with the fact that I'm not a fan of orange) I like abstract and freestyle arrangements the best! They are the most fun to do. The exotic flowers are more my style. It does make a lot of difference to me. I can look at a single flower, but I'm always thinking of what I can put with it. It could even BE a single flower, but then I'm thinking of grasses, twigs, different greens, and so on... so yeah exactly! ;)

    I totally understand Starby! That is great that you have an eye for flowers. Maybe from now on, I will take a little more time to make the arrangements and make them even better. I am the type to grab a bunch of flowers and stick them in the vase in a hurry!! I love doing that too. It makes me the happiest when My sons or daughter bring a single flower or even a whole big bunch of them (with the roots hanging on the bottom still) Heehee
    Natural is my fave... but I like to look at other types of arrangements as well!


    BUSHG... what is for dinner?? (sorry I am hungry)

    Starty... that is what I liked best about your flowers! They weren't fussed over a whole lot. They were just allowed to go wherever they wanted.
