naked ladies and gum


Naked ladies lure you in with their long lean stems and sweet scent. But be warned. 
THEY ARE POISONOUS! Mind out of the gutter please. I am talking about flowers. 
Here they feature nestled in with some gum (not chewing gum) and become -
Bouquet of the Day, from the other day

If you wish to enjoy these at home, 
you can live on the edge safely by choosing not to eat them.

my top picks

As I promised to you a few weeks ago... Please see below my personal all time superstar favourite flowers. 



I couldn't pick only a Top 5. That would be a torturous decision to make. 
SO - The decision was made like this. 
IF the flower shop was on fire, these would be the flowers I would save.  
The Flower Drum's TOP 8.
(in no particular order)

1. Hydrangea 
2. Freesia
3. Tulip
4. Peony 
5. Gardenia
6. Tuberose
7. Jonquil
8. Sweet pea

NOW TELL ME THIS- what is the best smelling flower EVER?
