Today ’s photo is fromRebeccaand Emily Sweet in Los Altos , California . Rebecca says:“While helping me get quick for a huge garden political party last week , Emily , my 14 - yr - old daughter , was side - track by the dish of my potted ‘ Blumex ’ parrot tulips and just HAD to take some picture . While doing so , one of the tulip exploded , dropping all of its petal to the ground . Instead of picking them up and discombobulate them away , she arranged them into a flower shape on my chair shock , where they remained for 2 day ! Such a beautiful , although temporary , work of art ! I ’m so thankful she thought to take pictures of them for me while I was in use rush around … ”Thanks for sending in these dandy photos , Rebecca and Emily !
