Ich bin gerade von der Schweiz zurückgekehrt, wo ich das Vergnügen hatte, einen wunderbaren Nachmittag mit meinen Gartenfreundinnen zu verbringen. Eine davon, Imelda nämlich, brachte mir diesen herrlichen Strauss. Sie ist eine begnadete Floristin, und ich möchte ihr Arrangement gerne mit euch teilen. Es lebe die Freundschaft, es lebe das Gärtnern! Danke, liebe Imelda 🙂
Just came back from Switzerland where I had the immense pleasure of catching up with my gardening friends. One of them -Imelda- brought me this bouquet. She’s a great flower arranger and I’d like to share it with you. Cheers to friendship and gardening! Thank you, dear Imelda 🙂
Ein fröhlicher Strauss mit Hortensie, Echinops, Allium sativum var. ophioscorodon, Scabiosa, Salvia, Thalictrum Elin, Nigella damascena…und eine Rose, deren Namen ich vergass!
A happy bunch featuring hydrangea, echinops, allium sativum var. ophioscorodon, scabiosa, salvia, thalictrum elin, nigella damascena…and a rose whose name I forget!
Danke an Cathy, die die Montagsvase ins Leben gerufen hat: Schaut bei ihr vorbei!
Thanks to Cathy for hosting the vase on a monday: Pop over to have a look at her vase and that of other bloggers!

Das sind ganz wundervolle Bilder und der Strauß gefällt mir super.
LG Mathilda ♥
Ahah – you ARE back home, and with a lovely selection of flowers from Imelda! Don’t they work well together? I love it too 🙂
Ich hoffe, Du hast lange Freude an dem wunderschönen Strauß, Annette. Das erinnert mich, dass ich schon lange wieder die „Jungfer im Grünen“ aussäen wollte. Zeit für die Liste 2015.

I hope you had a wonderful time in Switzerland. I love your posy, such pretty colours. It reminds of Vita Sackville West’s description of a tuzzy -muzzy.
What a lovely gift from your friend! The Thalictrum is wonderful – I’ve always wanted to try growing it.
What a lovely bouquet, and gorgeous photos. I love that Thalcitrum!
Schööön, so dicht ran. Gefällt mir ausgesprochen gut.
Oh Annette .. That bouquet is exquisite. What a special friend. And those photos! Heaven! Thank you …
Lucky you to have been in Switzerland – such a beautiful country! Your friend made a lovely bouquet – lots of my summer favourites are in that vase and your photos are stunning – I particularly love the nigella seedpod.
Such a gorgeous arrangement Annette. Your photos create a special mood that makes the flowers even more lovely.
What a fantastic vase and such a wonderful mix of lovely flowers especially the Thalcitrum which I also grow. I never thought of using it in a vase.
Very pretty, Annette – lovely soft colours. The photos, too, are wonderful! Another case of hydrangeas sneaking back into favour – such a beautiful shade of pink!
I love your images of the beautiful arrangement. It is the perfect time of year for picking flowers for the vase.
Beautiful images of a lovely bouquet. What a lovely gift.
Wunderschone Blumen und Fotos 🙂
Ein wunderschöner Strauß – da merkt man die Fachfrau 😀
What a lovely bouquet to receive, it’s ever so pretty.
Oh Annette that’s a most attractive posy of flowers. You must have been delighted to receive such a gift. Your friend is most talented and has an eye for colour and detail.
ein wunderschöner Strauß ❤
sehr schöner Beitrag, super Tag, KLaus
Brilliant to include the garlic!
As usual your photos are exceptional and I’m glad to hear you had a nice visit.
Beautiful arrangement. I especially like the Thalictrum, I don’t think I have ever seen that used as a cut flower.
So ein Gartensträußchen ist doch immer wieder schön anzusehen.:)
Today is the first taht I’ve joined Cathy for In a Vase on Monday and thus have found your ‚vase‘, too. How wonderful! I used to live in Zurich and absolutely loved the flower arrangements there. I can’t explain how, but they were simply different than American (or Irish) and so elegant! Yours today reminds me of that. So glad I stopped by! Dana
