This beautiful bouquet is a mixture of "real" flowers and weeds that have sprung up in my front garden. Like life, I believe that weeds are really in the eye of the beholder.
The colors are perfect together. I always thought that calling a dandelion a "weed" was hardly fair, they are so beautifully yellow. I couldn't recognize the purple flowers in the picture, but they don't seem like weeds to me. I wonder what would happen if you brought them inside in a bouquet?
"Slavery ended in medieval Europe only because the church extended its sacraments to all slaves and then managed to impose a ban on the enslavement of Christians (and of Jews). Within the context of medieval Europe, that prohibition was effectively a rule of universal abolition. "— Rodney Stark

A florist couldn't have designed a more beautiful bouquet! Nature is an amazing thing, eh? Beautiful!!!
Flowers! They are lovely!
Isn't it neat?! To me, anything with flowers can't really be a weed.
I find weeds have their own beauty - and certainly they have worth, for they are among God's creations.
I think weeds are a gift from God because they are so strong and prolific.

I'm so glad someone else agrees with me about dandelions!
I think my bouquet would last longer outside, but it is tempting to bring it in.
