It is brilliant! The flowers you have selected are all so lovely together but it's that tomato vine that just brings everything together so well.

I remember being fascinated years ago by one author's (possibly Rosemary Verey, but I can't remember!) depiction of the differences in yellows between spring and autumn. <br />Thought you might enjoy the tomato flowers - I certainly did, and they are lasting nicely in the vase ;-) So glad you enjoy the vase too; it seemed just the thing with all those flowers!Amy@SmallSunnyGardenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02490564566463354419noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3315847063483821430.post-11903563041850757452016-05-12T13:21:03.722-07:002016-05-12T13:21:03.722-07:00Ha!
