I use my collection of old pottery jugs to whip up casual flower arrangements for the kitchen; the key is balancing colours and textures. For this one, I plunked in a store-bought bunch of smoky blue sea holly (lucky you if you can grow it—globe thistle would also work), then added a few lemon-lime hosta leaves, sprigs of miniature lady’s mantle and variegated euonymus from my garden. Finally, I tucked in burgundy-coloured ‘Diabolo’ ninebark twigs. Then it was back to the crossword.
