Shelburne Vermont flowers "what people are saying"

what people are saying

Thank you so much for the very pretty bouquet of flowers that you gave my Mother last week at Wake Robin. She is a little too frail now to go out very much and spends many hours in her room.  

The flowers look beautiful and have added some sunshine to her surroundings.  

   Sincerely, Judith Knight

"I shall never forget the rapture of fever patients over a bunch of bright colored flowers. I remember (in my own case) a nosegay of wild flowers being sent to me from that moment recovery becoming more rapid"
