- botanical magic
- meticulous snipping and clipping
- boisterous buds, twigs and fronds
- creative blossom matchmaking
- sassy stems, sensuous petals
- unexpected containers
- dramatic color palettes
- generous, modest gifting of time and talent
We of this realm of Becketwood are smitten, amazed (yea, gobsmacked) by the splashes of beauty, and in homage we say, All hail, Barbara, our Queen of the May, and (may we be forgiven), Rule, Botanica!
Thank you Shirley for celebrating Barbara. The arrangements range from playful gatherings (with turkey feathers) to sophisticated masterpieces. The flowers always beg a lingering moment as we travel the “Main Street” at Becketwood.
Yes, I, for one, really enjoy Barb’s talent. Thanks for sharing.
