Flowers flowers flowers

That's what I thought my blog was going to be about when I decided to redeem the f-word. I imagined that all I'd want to do would be to share my passion for flowers and post loads of photos of them. That it'd be like a flower catalogue. I'm really surprised that this is the first post devoted to them.
So here are some of my favourite flower photos:

There are just too many to chose from so I'll devote this first flower post to cut flowers that have been bought by friends. These are special not only because of their beauty but because of the memories they evoke.

A bunch of flowers cannot fail to please - unless of course they're 'c' flowers, a.k.a chrysanthamums or carnations on their own. They are just too sensible and don't smell nice. I remember a friend who was experiencing hard times saying that she just couldn't afford not to buy herself flowers every week just to keep her spirits up.
So why not give someone a surprise gift of flowers today?
