Palette: Lilac Chrysanthemum

I couldn't resist taking a photo of these simple yet beautiful chrysanthemums that were carefully arranged on the tables in mum's care home. Having these small tributes to nature for the residents to look at was such a lovely idea. Mum loves flowers. She used to enter competitions for flower arranging. I remember going along to a dark and dank church hall to see whether her arrangement had a certificate lent against it. When she saw these tiny flowers, her face lit up.
