#Floristry ist ein Dutch-Auction spiel. Jeder startet mit 30 Geld und in jeder Runde steht die Auslage zur Auktion.Es Zählt ein Timer runter und die Wahre wird günstiger. Wer als erstes Zuschlägt erhält 3 der vier Steine. Der andere den anderen. Der Auktionsmechanismus macht Spaß und ist mal was neues. Das zusammen Puzzeln dann recht bekannt - hier will man große Gruppen der gleichen Sorte erhalten. Vielleicht kein Dauerbrenner aber erstmal eine schöne Entdeckung

#Floristry ist ein kurzweiliges Auktionsspiel, bei dem wir Blumen ersteigern und große Gruppen legen wollen. Die Dutchauction bringt hier den Twist, da man schnell und taktisch auf die Auslage reagieren muss. Mal was neues. Ob es über 10 Spiele trägt, kann ich noch nicht sagen. Aber für den Moment ist es eine schöne Entdeckung. #Brettspiele

The Chatty Gardener Dec 14

Those who've seen recent posts won't be surprised that it's the first time for many years that I've not booked onto a wreath workshop with Hans Flowers.

However, I've known him for years so he did me a favour and let me buy some spruce etc to make my own wreath at home.

A bit of berried ivy from the garden, along with a ring, some of the trimmings from previous years and I've put together a door wreath.

Spent the morning planting out Ranunculus corms. Prior to lockdown in 2020, most of my plot was given over to cut flower growing. Not knowing where the epidemic would lead, and when I saw supermarket shelves being stripped, I swapped to veg growing. Next year I will be growing flowers to raise money for charity. I've missed all these beauties, so looking forward to lots of flower faffing. This was the last arrangement of 2020.

The garden festival / Landesgartenschau was not just about #gardening. There were also events etc. (Which we didn't attend)

One place was about #floristry with really beautifully decorated arrangements. I'm always a bit jealous of such things. They look really beautiful, and require quite a crafts(wo)manship and a feeling for colors and style.

Anyways.
Enjoy those #flowers for a good start into the week!

Question: what does a 'native flower bouquet' look like around the world?

In Australia we get something with Banksia's, silvery gum leaves and some South African proteas snuck in for good measure; e.g. the pic from florist website below is pretty typical of the genre.

Got a bunch for me Dad last fathers day, they feel like a more traditionally masculine style (yes thats silly), and last very well.
