This is the time of year here in South Florida, when Bougainvilleas bloom. I don't normally like reds inside the house, but my magenta bougainvillea has lots of flowers right now, the oldest one....but they couldn't be seen from the outside, only behind the lattice wall, and only if you are a bird. So I cut some down along with some coleus, bought them inside and mixed with some faux, made several arrangements for the house.
Bougainvilleas are beautiful, and as showy and bright and intense with color they can be few people think of cutting them and bringing them inside. There are so many flowers held in such high esteem and others overlooked. I think bougainvilleas are beautiful.
Just sharing some beauty of Nature in Flowers.....always must have flowers. Blessed Be.

Love the colors! Love how they dry and retain their color too! So nice to see another post this week.
ReplyDeleteYour arrangements, bring out their natural beauty...
ReplyDeleteNice that you bring in a touch of red... Although it is not your go-to-color, in decorating. It's wise to be able to be flexible, isn't it?

Yes Tessa, it is wise to be flexible, and I am not suffering the compromise in the least! LOLOL.....I LOVE every arrangement as I go around the house and see that very jolly color around :D:D:D
DeleteBeautiful Bouquets. There is nothing like bringing the outside inside and having fresh flowers around the house makes everything feel fresh and happy. I'm still getting some roses from my garden, but soon it will be store bought if I want flowers.
ReplyDeleteSherry! how are you doing? Thank you for visiting and your ever precious comments. I wish I could have roses, but alas, the heat here is too much, yet I am not wanting to give up, I saw a rose bush on my walk and it was the first one I've seen around these parts so I am going to try.
DeleteGood morning Serena.....I can tell you love flowers as much as I do. Yours are lovely.....I had never thought of bring "Boggies" inside......we have lots of the here in AZ.
