The Wife is not a fan of cut flowers either. Something morbid about "Here's something beautiful that's already started dying..."
Love how the interior in your shot looks black and white with color outside the window.
Sorry to hear you're getting freezing weather already. How do the plants do over the winter when there is so little sunlight? Do you have a grow light for them?
It is a bit morbid but when ever I do get roses, I like to dry them and save for a long time, so it’s not too bad. Green plants just last nicer longer.
I don’t have grow light and usually the plants do alright, they just go into survival mode and don’t really grow much. I try to keep the apartment warm and somewhat humid and give them all the light I can and hope for the best.
And hey, nice to see you, you’ve been inactive for a while. How are you?
Nice to see you too! I've been fine - just so busy with work, commute, and house projects that there's no energy left for creative work. Maybe (hopefully) this winter...
Glad to hear it's not just my wife. Don't give her dead flowers, give her any number of flowering shrubs or even a potted tree!
