In a Vase on Monday. Water Lily.

Cathy who hosts In a Vase on Monday is back from her travels and this week   has featured her Jack and the Bean Stalk Lily which towers over her head . My lily is of   a different sort all together . I have never picked water lilies for a vase before , but for a ace   ready arrangement for the board I ca n’t think of anything better . Unless you strike into the pool whilst you are pick it of form . Which I did , but only with one leg . The pot of pelargoniums did n’t appreciate being sat on , but it is all in a full causa . I pluck a flush   which is n’t full open so that I can watch it opening in the vase .

Nymphaea . Water Lily .

WhenChristinaand I were at Beth Chatto ’s nursery of late , I buy the prettyGypsophila‘Rosenschleier ’ . I recollect the soft pinkish flowers make a nice lacy frame for the flush . And with the bluff water lily parting , that is all it needs .

I have never realised how beautiful the stamens are cheeseparing up . So if you have a pond and require a ready system   for the table , a water lily fit the neb utterly . As long as you do n’t fall in .

Please see whatCathyand all the other vase fillers have been up to . A portion of bloggers have become so enthusiastic about this meme , that they have made cutting gardens so that there is always an abundance of blooms to pick . The annuals are all coming into their own right now and people are showing us some wonderful vase .

That H2O lily is perfection ! A pond with lilies is another feature of the dream garden that can exist only in my resourcefulness .

That ’s a rather exquisite arrangement . I hope that you are well and truly dry out .
