The orange crocosmia are so vibrant, with each floret so perfectly spaced on the arching stem. And they seem to last forever as cut flowers - the nodule at the base of each flower is like a tiny button, and still very decorative long after the flowers have fallen.
Dear Bow Street Flowers, I actually don't know the name of any of these beauties. Just some flowers the owner has growing here around our rented cottage. Best, Denise
Crocosmia - I always wondered what that orangey spire was called, and now I know, and shall probably forget by the time late summer comes here, and they sprout up my neighbours driveway! I love picking them too. Your image is gorgeous. Amanda x
The crocrosmia is beautiful. It grows like a weed here, so I dare not put it in the garden, but it's great to pick from the roadside. Your arrangement is very elegant. Penny x
I rather thrill to the over-bright reach of a crocosmia (looking at a cluster of self-seeds that glow above the lavender). The shape and shine of your arrangement certainly brightens my eyes and that little corner.
Observer. Also, author of the novel “After the Sour Lemon Moon.” I recorded a free audio version at the beginning of the pandemic. You can find it in my Instagram bio, in highlights.
Beautiful composition, L.O.V.E. this photo.

ReplyDeleteAh, orange crocosmia, that is the name. Thank-you. Though these beauties grow freely in my garden, I never knew that.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful arrangement! And I love the curvaceous jar you've used to display them it.

ReplyDeleteI apologize - I didn't realize I was typing in Russian. What I meant to say is, yes, tranquility comes after the storm.
