FLOWER PICKING BASKET WITH FLOWERS--When a lady goes into her flower garden to gather whatever flowers are ready for indoor flower arrangements she needs a 'TRUG,'' a flat basket she can carry over her elbow to put them in. A TRUG is usually long, narrow and flat, perfect for placing the flowers in carefully so they won't be damaged. Samantha uses one much like this with her Flower Picking Set.

This TRUG is made of plastic and looks like it is woven. Since one never really knows which flowers will be ready to harvest, your flower grouping will vary some. This picture shows a representative sampling of today's posies. Today's group included a pink Calla Lily, a white rose, a larger red rose and something large and pink (we've forgotten its name--it is like that sometimes when we grow lots of flowers--we don't always remember which seeds were in the mixed packet. AnnaClaire is an expert flower grower from mixed packets. You never know what she will grow from year to year. Don't tell her we told you! She is a doctor who is supposed to know everything but she often doesn't know the flower names.)

Sometimes when Betsy comes in with her TRUG full of flowers it is more work than she expected once she gets them into the house! She must get them into (real) water quickly. We almost always have fresh flowers in several arrangements around the house. She has lots of little vases for even her smallest posies.

IMPORTANT: You should always use ''pretend water'' for your doll's arrangements or the metal stems will rust and get yucky if they aren't completely sealed by their plastic coating.
