Tomorrow is the big day and now is the time for the cut flowers. We went to the mountain to collect some P. cynaroides but the flowering season is late this year and there was also some evidence that illegal picking has taken place. We still managed to get a nice variety of of Leucodendrons as well.
Back at the nursery the others had collected mainly Leucospermum so now it was time to make pretty posies.

Heunis lent a hand as well and proudly shows off her handiwork together with Jenny.

When all was done we had a colourful collection in the greenhouse in the trough we made specially for the occasion.

We still moved some more Proteas and got most of the furniture ready.
