Gardening Attempts

Here is my first try at a holiday centerpiece. One of my co-workers had a party at a florist's shop and after we'd all had tea and cake, we made centerpieces. Yes, the greenery and flowers are real. I'd never done something like this before. It was really fun, and so different from doing things in the virtual realm. Too bad the centerpiece didn't last very long, despite frequent waterings. Of course, I don't have a very good track record with plants, as can be seen with the bonsai juniper I attempted this past spring...
