My husband brought me home a GORGEOUS bouquet of flowers today, and it was so big I decided to split it into two arrangements. How thoughtful! How beautiful! How romantic!
..And that’s how I discovered that I’m apparently allergic to goldenrod.
Nothing says professional horticulturist quite like standing in your own home with swollen, red, itchy hands because a plant decided to fight back.
I spend my days designing landscapes, identifying plants, and telling people what to put in their gardens, only to be personally victimized by a bouquet in my own kitchen.
But look at these arrangements!
Would I do it again? Absolutely.
Will I be wearing gloves next time? Also absolutely
