February 18, 2012 -- more mahonia

I cheated again today and extended the windowsill with a table. That's because I wanted to use Mahonia again, and it's just too big for most containers small enough to sit in a windowsill. This glass vase includes two hunks of mahonia (it's yellow blooms show up not at all in the phtos) and a bunch of redtwig dogwood stems that were leftover from pruning today.
