Top 10 plants

Another top ten list today.  This time I am sharing with you my favourite kinds of plants etc.

Note, I am very much into the secret meaning of flowers and the language of flowers – so I kind of read into subconscious feelings about me whenever anyone gifts me flowers! 

Also I do love making my own floral displays for the house from time to time, though I don’t get to do that much anymore because of our finances and thanks to the bad neighbour I no longer garden to make my own.
