Last year after 18 years of gardening solely for food purposes, I realized how much I love having fresh flowers on the table throughout the growing season. I'll post a pic here each time I make a new arrangement this year. Starting now.

(may have an adjustment period to learn how to embed images)

edit: Daffodils, Forsythia, Weeping Willow. Is there a way to adjust image size?

Yes. If you go back and edit your post, you can insert the image width inside the img square code brackets. like so:

I find a 450 width is nice for a landscape photo and 400 for a portrait. It may be best to make a thread in tinkering with this site to have a play with images, since there are people far more skilled in coding than I that may chip in and help.

Thanks for that Nancy, worked like a charm. More than enough coding for me for quite some time.

Daffodil, Wild Cherry, Field Mustard, Red Maple Samaras, Autumn Olive

Got to watch a tree sparrow teaching its young to fly at the daffodils this morning (nested in a gourd in the red maple above), while listening to the bluebirds sing. These arrangements are worth the time spent.

Just Dwarf Irises and Dwarf Daffodils up right now, at least there is a little color in the garden!
