Flowers from a Friend


Fragrant Flowers


On Saturday, a friend brought me some flowers from his garden:


Gardenias
The most fragrant of flowers - gardenias, jasmine, and plumeria (also known as frangipani).  What a lovely gift!


Jasmine

 I immediately put them in vases or, in the case of the plumeria, in a bowl of water where they floated:

Plumeria
 I was careful to place them high up on shelves, away from the reach of a curious cat who thinks flowers are good to eat!


The whole house smells lovely.

    1. Aren't they pretty? I have a couple of plumeria plants, myself, but they haven't flowered yet, this year.

    1. Yes; the plumeria (floating in the bowl) are one of my favorites.
