Well, he was a bit puzzled..... but he remembered they were cream and yellow flowers and that there were roses.
Before he got that far he tried a diversionary tactic..... "you were my wedding Flower" ....is there any wonder that chap has had the success he has! :)

He also remembered that the two bridesmaids had balls of flowers on ribbons....so quite good going.  ;D

The flowers were creamy white freesias, white single, golden centered chrysanthemums and the yellow roses...... I remember it well! ;D

Just a single rose:
Rosa hillieri
Luit van Delft, right in the heart of the beautiful flowerbulb district, Noordwijkerhout, Holland.

Sadly Luit died on 14th October 2016 - happily we can still enjoy his posts to the Forum
