Can anyone identify the grey-green soft spikes of foliage in this bouquet? Many thanks!

    Looks to me like rosemary.  Bruise a leaf or two - does it have a piney smell?

    I can't remember if it smelled or not unfortunately. I thought of rosemary as well but it seemed slightly different - the leaves were pointier, softer and less uniform, and the stems were less woody. Perhaps there's some variety I'm not familiar with?

    There are quite a few different varieties ... some are paler in colour ... and new growth is soft rather than woody. 
    With no information other than the picture my guess is rosemary too. 

    Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
