Today’s Flowers #73 – Freesias and another Guzmania

I enjoy having flowers in the house but there are few places where they can be safely placed where dogs tails won't knock them over or cats teeth and paws attack them.

So I put them in the kitchen, where I can see them. It's logical since I spend quite a lot of time in this room! Today I bought freesias - I can almost drink the perfume of these beauties - and a yellow Guzmania.

It will be a few days before the freesias open fully but already the  bromeliad complements the colour of the yellow freesias . . .

 . . . and the pink of the pig on the wall tones with the purple of the deeper freesias.

There are some odd angles here to try and hide the less pleasing aspects of my kitchen. (Did I mention that I shall be sacking the housekeeper - such a slovenly slattern she is ;-))

Thank you, as ever, to the industrious TF team for their hard work. To see more blooms from around the world please click here.
