This tie features a lovely, lacy white flower named the wild carrot. It was introduced and naturalized in North America, where it is often known as Queen Anne's Lace. It is so called because the flower resembles lace; the red flower in the center represents a blood droplet where Queen Anne pricked herself with a needle when she was making the lace. The single flower head with it's hundreds of tiny blossoms, is set against a background of green, yellow and black.



This colorful Rickshaw mini zero messenger bag is a feast for the eyes! It features an informal garden setting with pink and white snapdragons, nasturtiums in orange, yellow and red and one red poppy to create a brilliant abstract pattern.



Pretty to give, pretty to use. Lenten roses (Hellebore) bloom early, sometimes even when there is snow on the ground.



This lovely planner features a pink rose wallpaper pattern.
