I know, I know... Christmas is hardly over. We still have a few decorations to tuck away, but my thoughts have already turned to spring. It doesn't help that we are already receiving February magazines with beautiful pictures of large spring floral arrangements. I was outside today in my rubber boots, trying not to sink up to my waist in the back yard and discovered that my daffodils are coming up and my helleborus is sending up it's blossom stalks. One of the camelias even has an open blossom on it! Spring isn't too far away!
Here is the lovely inspiring picture from Country Living. I love all things chartreuse.....
My interpretation....
....I'm just delighted than I finally cleaned off the top of the fridge and got rid of stacks of cracker and cereal boxes. The branch is from our camelias out front. I soaked the entire branch in some warm water in the tub and then crushed the branch before putting it in the vase. Hopefully the buds will open.
And then to show off my blooming camelia....
