    <description><![CDATA[Since January we have been working with a potter in Herefordshire who makes small stoneware vessels specifically sized for our arrangements. They are not precious objects. They are meant to be used, returned, and used again.]]></description>

    <description><![CDATA[The most common question we get after a delivery is some version of: why did my last bunch die so fast? The answer is almost always one of three things. The water, the temperature, or the moment the stems were cut. None of it is complicated, but it does require a small amount of attention on the first day.]]></description>

    <guid>https://jadefieldharbor.com/notes/why-we-only-use-seasonal-flowers.html</guid>
    <description><![CDATA[When people hear that we only use seasonal flowers, the first question is usually: does that mean I cannot get roses? The answer is that roses do have a season, it is just not twelve months long. The second question is usually: what is actually in season right now?

The sun is out, the table is long, and the flowers are going to be looked at from every angle for several hours.

    <description><![CDATA[Dried flowers have a reputation for being fragile and dusty. Some of that reputation is earned, mostly by dried flowers that were not dried properly in the first place. When stems are hung correctly and dried slowly in a cool, dark room, the result is something that holds its colour and shape for a long time.
