On Wednesday afternoon, these flowers - along with a very fine bottle of French wine - were delivered for our neighbours. As they were out of town, I had no choice but to remove the paper wrapping, put the flowers in a vase and admire the intriguing combination of blooms and branches. Of course I couldn't resist taking pictures of such an exotic bouquet! (Click the image to view detail). Needless to say, the neighbours were delighted to return home to such a lovely surprise.

What colors and textures...incredibly creative mix. Would love to see this in fabric or wallpaper. Just beautiful!

I'm not surprised they are so lovely, given how beautiful the flowers are in the Netherlands -- but this is particularly gorgeous with its combination. I'm glad you were home to capture it!

I love bouquets with unusual additions. This one is lovely. I'm glad you got to enjoy it while it waited for its intended recipients, and how nice for your neighbors, that you were available to hold it for them.
