have been looking for a birthday gift for a good friend of mine who is an avid gardener. She has the most gorgeous section in her greenery called her "cutting garden" where she plants specimens just for filling up the vases, watercans, whatever she can find with them. She is also very whimsical and funny. I thought getting her a vase would be boring - until I saw the vases available. Here are some of the BEST.
