Flowers and herbs, real and faux. Just playing around with colors and textures and even scents (that’s Thai basil in front) to make a little spot of joy. Since this photo was taken the echinacea flowers have become seeds in a bag and a small bowl of blood oranges sits next to the faux orange flowers. Amazingly the Thai basil still looks the same. And when I lifted it just now I realized that the stems had grown roots. A certain fellow in this household has an upcoming planting project as soon as I find the right pot.
