I missed the previous posts about the bottle. I also have a little plain one which is cute too. It was a well known make of bitter lemon fizzy drink
wakeshine - those sweet peas are Black Knight. They've been really good on the plant and as cut flowers. Took a while to get the scent - probably not warm enough at the time it started flowering. I love the dark colours - always grow a couple if I can, and that's been one of the nicest. I love Cupani for it's scent, although it's not as dark, but it's always been a favourite of mine.
Love your arrangement Fritillary - really beautiful
It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
Mine are not tasteful, all colours! Cheerful, I hope. They are not in a jam jar either, my entry for the Garden club vase of flowers from your garden. I won, but mine was the only entry!
Dordogne and Norfolk. Clay in Dordogne, sandy in Norfolk.

Ha! And people think cutting flowers is a simple business. Love the bottle fairygirl. Love unusual vases. I have a few teapots I like to use.
I've got one of those bottles Fairy
Only mine is pink (from pink lemonade)

Lovely blend of colours AuntyR
Photographing was tricky as either too bright or too windy! Probably should have gone inside!
I didn't quite realise how much pink I have dotted about the garden. Most of my blooms are pink or purple (except for one orange-y corner).
Very pretty and tasteful, Aunty Rach.

Well busy...it deserved to win anyway! Lovely
Jam jar flowers on the 23rd August.
