"So shy the small white petal of my display
grasp your hand with cut of me
for to fill the vase of your demand
is to know the essence of my adaptability"

It's hard to take the florist out of me, but I do agree that a flower in a field is lovely, and to put it in a vase could be considered cruelity to flowers.

And the only way to unbind those roots is to rip the pot away and slash them up and down.....then cruelty is kindness.
