January Jardiniere Arrangements



A new year, an old project--completed!  Before Christmas, Sara wanted to plant evergreens in her matching pots at the back door.  Weather and other holiday-related stuff -- and a full-time job as Mommy to a 10-month old -- got in the way of accomplishing that.  On a nice day in January, Sara created the arrangement on the right with cuttings from her yard.  Together we tried to replicate the design in the other planter on the left.

 
As the light was waning on a late winter afternoon, we hurried to complete the second arrangement with White pine, Scotch pine, cotoneaster and some maroon-leaved azalea cuttings.  Her azaleas won't be affected because they are mature and overgrown and abundant with blooms each year.
 
Nice job. Well done!
Something to enjoy the rest of winter...
