OT, a small patch of cereals is worth growing just for an everlasting
"flower" arrangement. Cut while the heads are still green. Of special
interest to men living alone, as it proves you have taste and
imagination, is impossible to arrange badly, and really does last for
yonks. I recommend removal of any spider-webs every few years, but this
refinement is, of course, optional.
