Pansies and Anemones for Winter and Spring Bouquets

 
Pansies are the brilliant jewels of the winter garden.
 
 You'll see them holding up their bright faces throughout December, January and February- anytime there is stretch of several days with temperatures above freezing. And they will keep on blooming and thriving until May.
This year I am especially interested in pansies as wedding flowers. You see, Jordan is getting married in early March, and pansies would fit perfectly with her English garden theme.
So now is the time to practice incorporating them into bouquets and centerpiece designs. Here they are in a dainty bouquet with blue and white anemones, fragrant Winter Daphne, and hellebore.
It's such a lovely combination! I can't wait to try them in Jordan's wedding flowers!
