This is the perfect time of year to introduce flowers to your kitchen. The simple addition of a flower filled vase is all that is required to bring that extra bit of Summer into your home. The most suitable way to display flowers in a kitchen would be to create a stylish centrepiece on an island. However, not everyone has this luxury so pottering 1 or 2 smaller plants around your kitchen can have a similar effect.
