At the Northwest Flower and Garden Festival in February, this painting done by artist and potter Cindy Jenkins brought memories of summers past and another that was still so far away. Time passes so quickly and here we are, on the verge of the official start of summer.
This vase/pot, also by Cindy usually sits by my computer holding the latest bunch of plant tags. It would be perfect to hold some of the Senecio leucostachys that had to be cut back from the walkway.
Might as well throw in one of Cindy's birds. (For the record, this is not what's meant by giving one the bird.)
Oh right, this is supposed to be about something in a vase so here's my vase for this week. Truth be told, the kitchen counter is covered with various prunings stuffed into containers of water but since we're approaching the lazy days of summer, maybe I'll just enjoy them there this week.
