Everything they receive they believe they deserve so gratitude is unnecessary.

They do look lovely and the foliage is the perfect foil. Cutting choice blooms seems to be something most of us have a problem with until we make that first tentative step. I can certainly recommend cutting alliums though, as they last for ages in a vase.
