Thinking of you xxx - ossirus coz you  miss your doggie - redhead 
The dutch markets open back up on the 29th dec according to my supplier so you should be able to get flower. Both my grandparents got married in the 40's, one had a huge shower of red car and asparagus fern and the other had a shower of tulips and anemones.
