the bedside posy

by Sharon Santoni
[blank]A small posy for the bedside table of a loved one taking some enforced bed rest.
 
A couple of roses, a few lace headed hydrangeas, some green sedum and a lovely grey foliage that may be convolvulus,
 but don’t hold me to it![blank]
 
[blank]When a gal can’t get out to her garden, 
you just have to bring the best of it in to her![blank]
[blank]smiles and flowers – good medicine at any age![blank]

it's really beautiful. I think you grey leaves may be stachys byzantina aka Lambs ears (for obvious reasons lol)! Are they kind of furry?, Gill

I believe a lady should always have fresh flowers on her bedside table. Such a simple pleasure, but a pleasant thing to look at first thing in the morning. That is a lovely arrangement, Sharon. Pink roses are my favourite!

Lacecap hydrangeas are very popular, and a bedside bouquet is welcome on most tables.
