Feather Flora Vase Giveaway Winner: mmadden

Lilies. Those are my favorite flowers — and apparently, I'm not alone. I really enjoyed reading all of your comments from last week's giveaway. But ultimately, there could only be one winner. Here's mmadden's winning comment:

 
 
"Orchids. My beloved 91-year-old grandfather maintains a lush greenhouse, and for many years he has hybridized orchids and shown them at orchid shows worldwide. Whenever I see orchids of any type, I think of him, his incredible greenhouse filled with blooms of all shapes, sizes and colors, and how he's always waiting to see if a new hybridization experiment will be a success or failure.

"The best part: whenever he creates a particularly pretty new orchid, he names it after family members or friends. I must say, it's lovely to have a flower named after me! (It's a medium-sized bloom in blood red with yellow spots, by the way.)"

Congrats, mmadden! And thank you to Relish at Home for teaming up with us for this giveaway, as well as to everyone who entered.
