  5. 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.

    1. 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

  8. 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

  9. Ah, orange crocosmia, that is the name. Thank-you. Though these beauties grow freely in my garden, I never knew that.

  10. Beautiful arrangement! And I love the curvaceous jar you've used to display them it.

  11. 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.

  13. 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.

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