All Fall Down

…and I nearly unbalanced as I tried to take this crouching on the floor. Lily pollen is terrible stuff, and I was determined not to get streaks across the carpet, so I didn’t risk moving the vase

    We tend to cut those stamens off when we have those flowers in a vase. Some once badly stained the previous carpet in the living room.
    Best wishes, Pete.

    Yep, keep the stamens, just be super careful.

    Oooh, I don’t fancy cutting the stamens off. It’s true they’e tricky – but an integral part of the flower.

    Lily pollen is terrible stuff, I agree.

    “All fall down” – isn’t that a line from the plague nursery rhyme – “Ring a rosie”? No falling allowed.
