When I got home with two stems of kangaroo paw, a couple of boughs of cherry and a bunch of pink lilies ...
I wondered what Constance Spry would have done. Apart from throwing in a cabbage. (Bought the expensive pink hydrangeas that weren't reduced probably.)
But that's Columbia Road at the bargain basement end of the afternoon.
The arrangement looks .... unusual.
Perhaps Constance Spry had a better selection of vases.
I hear you. I'd love an autumnal arrangement of bronze and gold on my table but I've got glads because they're only £2.00 a bunch!
ReplyDeleteI'm kind of kicking myself about the hydrangeas, Nicola, especially as I then went off and bought a delicious - but tiny and ridiculously expensive - morsel of cake.
ReplyDeleteWhat I really, really wanted was old-fashioned dahlias, so hard to find. Might have helped if I'd got there early.
I love the Columbia Road Flower Market, Mary. Thank you for writing about it.
ReplyDeleteHello Nick. Yes, it's a lovely way to spend a Sunday, isn't it.
