April 7, 2012 -- Grace's poppy, my borage

My granddaughter Grace found a broken gourd top in the garden and decided to use it as a vase (to make it stand up, we put it in another vase, wooden stem down). Into the gourd, which holds water , she put a California poppy. Amazingly, she knew the California poppy by name, because it appears in one of the American Girl stories!


And here is a bunch of flowers I dropped into a blue bottle exactly as I gathered them in my hand: blue borage flowers, wild daisies, yellow wood poppy, and leaves from an ornamental grass.
