In a Vase on Monday, 10th Anniversary (When a Vase is Not a Vase): Tough as Old Boots
13.11.2023 - 09:45 / ramblinginthegarden.wordpress.com / Cathy
Welcome to the 10th anniversary of IAVOM, a meme which commenced on an inauspicious November Monday, with the sole purpose of encouraging me to pick flowers or other material from the garden on a regular basis. It must have worked because, ten
years and 520 vases later, it is still going. My favourite vase from each of the last 12 months is shown in the collage below – July presented the hardest choice!
From the first few vases, I was joined along the way by other bloggers, and together we have learned the pleasure not only of appreciating our garden treasures at closer quarters inside our homes, but also the joy of looking at our gardens in a different way to source our cutting material. We have also built up a supportive community from which we draw benefits too numerous to mention – thank you to one and all, whether a vase-contributor or vase-commentator. The names of everyone who comments on this anniversary post will go into a draw to win this rather appropriate adult colouring book:
I set a challenge for today’s contributions, to post a vase that wasn’t a vase. In my case, I felt I ought to exclude any non-vases that had already been used, like jugs, jars, bottles, ink pots, etc, but I shan’t think any the worse of anyone who isn’t as strict with themselves! After much deliberation and a change of plan for the blooms I planned to use, today’s vase substitute is a doll’s plastic boot, one of the many quirky things that sits on one of my numerous shelves of dust-collecting stuff. For what it is, the details are surprisingly realistic, from the replica stitching to the surface that looks and somehow feels like real leather. Filling it is a clutch of Persicaria ‘Inverleith’ stems and foliage of Pittosporum ‘Gold Star’.

In a Vase on Monday: Pearl
Dusk caught me unawares yesterday afternoon – with sunset officially occuring at about 4.00, I shouldn’t have been surprised, although it still seemed light as I finished cutting up the prunings from R Cécile Brunner (with only the teeniest bit of shed roof clambering required…) and headed inside for a cup of tea and piece of cake… to remember I hadn’t prepared for IAVOM!
